Tune: Sandys
('Teach me, my God and King')
Psalm 6 v.1-4
********
O Lord, rebuke me not
In anger, else my lot
Shall be poor, nor chasten me in
Displeasure for my sin
Have mercy upon me
O Lord, my troubles see
For I am weak, come to me, heal
Me, that I you sense, feel
My bones are vexed and pained
My soul sore troubled, feigned
I this not, but O Lord, how long
Till I return to song?
And you return to me
And from my troubles free
Me, O save me for your mercies
Sake, do so, these my pleas

Why yes, thanks N. Did ya think it was a tale of woe about KP and I, going by the title?!
