('Oft in danger, oft in woe')
Pslam 138 v.6-8
*******
Though the Lord be high, yet He
Has respect to lowly, see
But the proud He knows afar
Off, as though as distant star
Though I walk in the midst here
Of trouble, He shall appear
And revive me, show His hand
I Hs ways shall understand
He shall from my enemies
Wrath save me, and my soul sees
That the Lord will complete sure
His work in me, true and pure
Your mercy, Lord, endures e'er
You do it with mortals share
Forsake me not, I be made
By your hands, your work displayed
