1. Hear my prayer, O lord;listen to my plea!Answer me because you are faithful and righteous.
2. Don’t put your servant on trial,for no one is innocent before you.
3. My enemy has chased me.He has knocked me to the groundand forces me to live in darkness like those in the grave.
4. I am losing all hope;I am paralyzed with fear.
5. I remember the days of old.I ponder all your great worksand think about what you have done.
6. I lift my hands to you in prayer.I thirst for you as parched land thirsts for rain.Interlude
7. Come quickly, lord, and answer me,for my depression deepens.Don’t turn away from me,or I will die.
8. Let me hear of your unfailing love each morning,for I am trusting you.Show me where to walk,for I give myself to you.
