Psalm 17A: Psalm 17:1-5
St. Andrew, C.M. [A flat]
| 1. |
1 Give ear to what is right, O LORD!
O listen to my cry!
Give heed to this my earnest prayer
From lips which do not lie.
|
| 2. |
2 May judgment from Your presence come
Which will me vindicate,
And always may Your searching eyes
See what is just and straight.
|
| 3. |
3 For You have scrutinized my heart;
You came to me by night.
You've probed and found no ill intent;
My mouth speaks only right.
|
| 4. |
4 From acts of men, from violence,
I'm guarded by Your word;
5 My steps held closely to Your paths;
My footsteps have not erred.
