In vision to thy Holy One thou saidst, I help upon A strong one laid; out of the folk I rais'd a chosen one;
I with my chosen One have made a cov'nant graciously; And to my servant, whom I lov'd, to David sworn have I;
My tears have unto me been meat, both in the night and day, While unto me continually, Where is thy God? they say.
I cry'd, and, from his holy hill, the Lord me answer made.
