So hear me now, Lord; show me your famous mercy. O God, be my Savior and rescue me!
But the Lord God has become my divine helper. He leans into my heart and lays his hands upon me!
Lord, you must hear my prayer, for you are faithful to your promises. Answer my cry, O righteous God!
Yahweh is my strength and my wraparound shield. When I fully trust in you, help is on the way. I jump for joy and burst forth with ecstatic, passionate praise! I will sing songs of what you mean to me!
Hear my cry. Show me mercy, and send the help I need!
I’m worn out with my weeping and groaning. Night after night I soak my pillow with tears, and flood my bed with weeping.
