1. I love you, lord;you are my strength.
2. The lord is my rock, my fortress, and my savior;my God is my rock, in whom I find protection.He is my shield, the power that saves me,and my place of safety.
3. I called on the lord, who is worthy of praise,and he saved me from my enemies.
4. The ropes of death entangled me;floods of destruction swept over me.
5. The grave wrapped its ropes around me;death laid a trap in my path.
