(\'Earth has many a noble city\')
Psalm 3
********
LORD, they are increased that trouble
Me, look, they rise against me
Many be there that do say sure
No help for him in god more
But you, O LORD, are a shield strong
For me, you my praise, my song
My glory, you lift up my head
Though they have me oppresséd
I cried to the LORD with my voice
I shall still in Him rejoice
He heard me from His holy hill
And shall keep me from all ill
I laid me down and I did sleep
He my LORD, He does me keep
I awoke, for He sustained me
He e\'er my protector be
I shall not fear of ten thousands
Though they compass me ,their bands
Arise, O LORD, my God, save me
You have smitten enemies
Salvation belongs to the LORD
He is e\'er the living Word
His blessing is on His people
He does help them, one and all
