1. I pray to you, Lord.I beg for mercy.

2. I tell you all my worriesand my troubles,

3. and whenever I feel low,you are there to guide me.A trap has been hiddenalong my pathway.

4. Even if you look,you won't see anyonewho cares enoughto walk beside me.There is no place to hide,and no one who really cares.

5. I pray to you, Lord!You are my place of safety,and you are my choicein the land of the living.Please answer my prayer.I am completely helpless.
