Tune: St Anne
('O God our help in ages past')
Psalm 142
*******
I cried to the LORD with my voice
Still in Him I rejoice
To Him I made supplication
He LORD of each nation
Before Him I showed my complaint
Troubled, I weary, faint
When overwhelmed was my spirit
Still you my path had lit
In the way where I walked my foes
Laid snares, did me oppose
I looked for Help, no man would know
Me, nor be concerned so
Refuge failed me, bereft my soul
I cried, LORD, make me whole
For you my refuge and portion
God for me you have done
O hear my cry, for I am low
My enemies you know
They stronger than me, my soul bring
From prison, then I sing
Sing to you, praise your name, resound
The righteous me surround
For you shall deal bountifully
With me, your servant be
