1. In thee, O Lord, I put my trust,sham'd let me never be;According to thy righteousnessdo thou deliver me.
2. Bow down thine ear to me, with speedsend me deliverance:To save me, my strong rock be thou,and my house of defence.
3. Because thou art my rock, and theeI for my fortress take;Therefore do thou me lead and guide,ev'n for thine own name's sake.
4. And sith thou art my strength, thereforepull me out of the net,Which they in subtilty for meso privily have set.
5. Into thine hands I do commitmy sp'rit: for thou art he,O thou, JEHOVAH, God of truth,that hast redeemed me.
6. Those that do lying vanitiesregard, I have abhorr'd:But as for me, my confidenceis fixed on the Lord.
7. I'll in thy mercy gladly joy:for thou my miseriesConsider'd hast; thou hast my soulknown in adversities:
8. And thou hast not inclosed mewithin the en'my's hand;And by thee have my feet been madein a large room to stand.
