But, in an acceptable time, my pray'r, Lord, is to thee: In truth of thy salvation, Lord, and mercy great, hear me.
He'll call on me, I'll answer him; I will be with him still In trouble, to deliver him, and honour him I will.
He mindful of his grace and truth to Isr'el's house hath been; And the salvation of our God all ends of th' earth have seen.
After thy loving-kindness, Lord, have mercy upon me: For thy compassions great, blot out all mine iniquity.
For this shall ev'ry godly one his prayer make to thee; In such a time he shall thee seek, as found thou mayest be. Surely, when floods of waters great do swell up to the brim, They shall not overwhelm his soul, nor once come near to him.
