Psalms 86:10-17 Metrical Psalms 1650 (MP1650)

10. Because thou art exceeding great,and works by thee are doneWhich are to be admir'd; and thouart God thyself alone.

11. Teach me thy way, and in thy truth,O Lord, then walk will I;Unite my heart, that I thy namemay fear continually.

12. O Lord my God, with all my heartto thee I will give praise;And I the glory will ascribeunto thy name always:

13. Because thy mercy toward mein greatness doth excel;And thou deliver'd hast my soulout from the lowest hell.

14. O God, the proud against me rise,and vi'lent men have met,That for my soul have sought; and theebefore them have not set.

15. But thou art full of pity, Lord,a God most gracious,Long-suffering, and in thy truthand mercy plenteous.

16. O turn to me thy countenance,and mercy on me have;Thy servant strengthen, and the sonof thine own handmaid save.

17. Shew me a sign for good, that theywhich do me hate may see,And be asham'd; because thou, Lord,didst help and comfort me.
