1. A prayer of David.Incline your ear, Lord, and answer me,for I am poor and oppressed.
2. Preserve my life, for I am devoted;save your servant who trusts in you.You are my God;
3. be gracious to me, Lord;to you I call all the day.
4. Gladden the soul of your servant;to you, Lord, I lift up my soul.
5. Lord, you are good and forgiving,most merciful to all who call on you.
6. Lord, hear my prayer;listen to my cry for help.
