MHRPC: Psalm 40D

Psalm 40D: Psalm 40:11-17

Green Hill, C.M. [G]

9. ¹¹ O LORD, Thou wilt not now withhold
        Thy tenderness from me;
Thy steadfast love and faithfulness
        Preserve me constantly.

10. ¹² So many ills beset me round
        They countless seem to be;
Iniquities have closed me in
        Until I cannot see;

11. They're more than hairs upon my head;
        My heart is failing me.
¹³ Be pleased, O LORD, to rescue me;
        Make haste; O LORD, help me!

12. ¹⁴ Let them be humbled and ashamed
        Who would my soul destroy;
Turned back, dishonored let them be
        Who see my hurt with joy.

13. ¹⁵ Let them be overcome with shame;
        Let them frustrated be,
Who in their scorn and malice say,
        "Aha! Aha!" to me.

14. ¹⁶ Let all those seeking Thee rejoice;
        Let them in Thee be glad;
Those loving Thy salvation say,
        "The LORD be magnified!"

15. ¹⁷ Although I poor and needy am,
        The Lord takes thought of me.
My Help and my Deliverer,
        My God, do not delay!
