2 1. De-fend me, God, and plead my case a-gainst a
god-less clan
De - liv - er me from fraud-u-lent, un -
just and wick-ed man.
3 2. O God in whom I ref-uge take,
why have
you cast me off?
Why must I griev-ing walk a bout while foes
op-press
and scoff?
4 3. O send your light forth and your
truth
O let them lead me
well
And bring me to your ho-ly hill, the
place you
choose to dwell.
5 4. Then I will to Gods al-tar
go, to God, my bound-less
joy.
To ren-der thanks to God, my God, the heart
I will em-ploy.
Harp was changed to heart.
6 5. O why, my soul, are you bowed down?
Why so dis-cour-aged be?
Hope now in God! Ill praise him still! My
Help, My God is he!
