Tune: Mannheim
(\'Lead us, heavenly Father, lead us\')
Psalm 141
*******
Make haste, LORD, I cry unto you
Hear my voice, I call unto
You to help me, let my prayer be
As incense before you, see
And lifting up of hands suffice
As the evening sacrifice
Before my mouth, LORD, a watch set
Keep the door of my lips yet
To evil let me not incline
Keep my heart in your way free
I shall not with evil men go
Nor their ways or doings know
Let [the] righteous smite me, it be kind
Their reproving I shall find
As an excellent oil, it shall
Not break my head, but fare well
For yet when they in their trouble
I pray for them, on you call
We [are] in distress, our bones scattered
At grave\'s mouth as unmattered
We as fields ploughed, tossed and turned be
But my eyes are to you, see
O God the LORD, trust I un you
O come to my help anew
Leave not my soul destitute here
Keep me from the snares, traps near
That the evil workers have laid
For me, they proud, unafraid
Let them trapped in their own nets be
While I do escape safely
