I am in deep distress, but I love your teachings.
Death attacked from all sides, and I was captured by its painful chains. But when I was really suffering,
I am in terrible pain! Save me, LORD, as you said you would.
I will take pleasure in your laws and remember your words.
I love your commands! They bring me happiness.
I love to obey your Law! Have mercy and let me live.
From a sea of troubles I call out to you, LORD.
Jesus said: My food is to do what God wants! He is the one who sent me, and I must finish the work that he gave me to do.
