Lord, don’t leave me!\par My God, stay close to me!\par
My God, my God!\par Why did you leave me?\par You are too far away to save me!\par You are too far away to hear my cries for help!\par
So, God, don’t leave me!\par Trouble is near.\par And there is no person to help me.\par
Lord, don’t leave me!\par You are my strength.\par Hurry and help me!\par
Why? Because the Lord helps poor people who have troubles.\par The Lord is not ashamed of them.\par He doesn’t hate them.\par If people call to the Lord for help,\par he will not hide from them.\par
I have done only good things.\par But those people will do bad things to me.\par \{Lord,\} give me the good things I deserve.\par
