Tune: Pastor Pastorum
(\'Faithful Shepherd, feed me\')
Psalm 13
********
How long, LORD, you forget
Not think on me yet?
Will you your face hide here?
Woe to me, betide
How long shall I sorrow
Not your comfort know?
How long enemy be
Exalted o\'er me?
Consider and hear me
LORD, my troubles see
Lighten my eyes, me keep
Lest I sleep death\'s sleep
Lest my enemy say
\'I have had my way
Have prevailed and o\'ercome
Victory I have won\'
And lest those that trouble
me when I near fall
And rejoice against m
When my state they see
But I have here trusted
Your mercy, you led
Me from troubles, saving
Praises you I bring
I shall in you rejoice
Lifting heart and voice
For you have dealt bounteous
With all, even us
