Tune: Louvan
(\'Lord of all being, throned afar\')
Psalm 17 v.5-8
*******
Hold up my steps, Lord, in your ways
Help me to follow all my days
So shall I slip not, persevere
Trusting you with me, always near
I have called on you, you will hear
Incline your ear, hear my prayer clear
Show me your marvellous mercy
Your loving-kindness unto me
You are He who does save by your
Right hand them which trust you for sure
You save them from those that do rise
Against them with oppression, lies
Keep me as apple of your eye
Look on me and not pass me by
Hide me \'neath shadow of your wings
So then safe, my soul to you sings
