Tune: Franconia
('Blest are the pure in heart')
Psalm 56 parts
*********
Be merciful to me
O God, my enemy
Would swallow me up, for daily
He fights, oppresses me
What time I am afraid
I will trust in you staid
In you LORD God I praise your word
Your truth of it I heard
In God I have put my
Trust, will not fear what, by
And by what man can do to me
My hope is in you, see
You know my wanderings
My tears, troubles, all things
When I call to you, enemy
Shall turn, before you flee
You have delivered me
My soul, from death be free
So I walk before you in light
Of the living, clear, bright
