Tune: St Francis Xavier
('My God, I love thee, not because')
**********
Psalm 138 v.3
In the day when I cried you heard
To my help came, you stirred
And strengthened me sure in my need
Strength in my soul indeed
Psalm 139 v.17-18
How precious are your thoughts to me
If I should count them, see
More than the grains of sand the yare
I live in you strong, free
Psalm 140 v.3
Keep me, O Lord, from the wicked
Their deeds done, their words said
Preserve me from the violent, they
Would overthrow my way
Psalm 141 v.4
Incline my heart to no evil
But follow you, my will
Is not to go after them who
Do go astray anew
Psalm 141 v.8
My eyes, O God, are unto you
I focus on you, view
In you is my trust, my pursuit
Leave me not destitute
Psalm 142 v.2
When my spirit in me heavy
Was, overwhelmed it be
Then you my path knew, me did show
So I still your way know
