Based on Psalm 62
********
Truly my soul upon God waits
He does see my estates
From Him comes my salvation
Open to each nation
He only is my rock, defence
My salvation from hence
I shall not so be greatly moved
He has of me approved
How long foes, you imagine
Mischief against each one?
You shall be slain, yes all of you
As wall, fence, that falls true
They plot and plan to good o\'erthrow
Sincerity not know
Delighting in their lies, they proud
Bless, though inward curse loud
My soul, only upon God wait
he will aid, not be late
From Him my expectation is
My rock, salvation, this
My defence strong, moved not am I
To you I refuge fly
God of my salvation, my rock
My glory, though foes mock
Trust in Him at all times, trust sure
Pour out your heart before
Him, for God is our refuge strong
Hold to Him all life long
Surely men of low degree [are] vain
And so too it is plain
That men of high degree a lie
Are, we cannot deny
Trust not in oppression, now cease
\'Tis not he way of peace
Become not vain in robbery
Set not on riches, see
That God has spoken, and I heard
Power is His, His word
He has declared, and too mercy
Just to each one He be
