Lord, you are my Rock, {\cf2\super [168]} \par I am calling to you for help.\par Don’t close your ears to my prayers.\par If you don’t answer my calls for help,\par then people will think I am no better\par than the dead people in the grave.\par
The Lord is my strength.
He saves me,
and I sing songs of praise to him. [96] The Lord is my God,
and I praise him.
The Lord is the God of my ancestors, [97] and I honor him.
“For a long time I have said nothing.\par I controlled myself\par and didn’t say anything.\par But now I will cry out\par like a woman giving birth to a child.\par I will breath very hard and loud.\par
