Tune: St Fulbert
('Ye choirs of new Jerusalem')
Psalm 31 v.1-4
*********
In you, O Lord, I put my trust
Though I mere man and dust
O let me never be ashamed
Though enemies me blamed
Come, save me in your righteousness
Turn to me, and me bless
Bow down your ear to me, and hear
Assure me you are near
Save me speedily, for you be
Strong rock even to me
A house of defence, a refuge
You give grace and courage
For you are my rock and fortress
I will trust you, do bless
Me, and for your name's sake lead me
And too guide me freely
Save me from snares, and from the nets
That my enemy sets
To trap me, for you my strength be
My Saviour constantly
