Hope Of Help (2)

Tune: Marching

(one tune to: 'Father, hear the prayer we offer')

Psalm 43

********

Judge me, O God, and plead my cause

Save me out of troubles, wars

And from the unjust, deceitful

Who stir up oppressions all

For you the God of my strength are

Attend, be not from me far

Why I seem as cast off? Why go

I mourning now here below?

O send out your truth and your light

Let them lead me, give me sight

Let them bring me to your holy

Hill, and tabernacles free

Then I will to God's altar go

And my praises to him show

He be God, my exceeding joy

Songs, music I shall employ

It be to praise Him, my God He

Be, Why cast down my soul? See

Hope in Him, I shall Him yet praise

He my help, shall me up raise
