4. My soul among fierce lions is,I firebrands live among,Men's sons, whose teeth are spears and darts,a sharp sword is their tongue.
5. Be thou exalted very highabove the heav'ns, O God;Let thou thy glory be advanc'do'er all the earth abroad.
6. My soul's bow'd down; for they a nethave laid, my steps to snare:Into the pit which they have digg'dfor me, they fallen are.
7. My heart is fix'd, my heart is fix'd,O God; I'll sing and praise.
8. My glory wake; wake psalt'ry, harp;myself I'll early raise.
9. I'll praise thee 'mong the people, Lord;'mong nations sing will I:
10. For great to heav'n thy mercy is,thy truth is to the sky.
11. O Lord, exalted be thy nameabove the heav'ns to stand:Do thou thy glory far advanceabove both sea and land.
