1. Bow down thine ear, O Jehovah, and answer me; For I am poor and needy.
2. Preserve my soul; for I am godly: O thou my God, save thy servant that trusteth in thee.
3. Be merciful unto me, O Lord; For unto thee do I cry all the day long.
4. Rejoice the soul of thy servant; For unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.
5. For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive, And abundant in lovingkindness unto all them that call upon thee.
