Psalm 40F: Psalm 40:10-17

Lausanne, 66.66.D. [B flat]

5. 10 I hid not in my heart
        Your truth and saving help;
Your faithfulness I preached
        In the assembly great.
11 You'll not withhold from me
        You tender mercies , LORD,
And Your unfailing love
        Will ever keep me safe.

6. 12 Misfortunes beyond count
        Have taken hold of me.
My sins close in on me
        So that I cannot see.
In greater sum are they
        Than hairs upon my head.
So my heart fails in me;
        My courage fades away.

7. 13 Come to my rescue, LORD;
        O LORD, make haste to help.
Let all who seek my life
        Be shamed and be confused..
14 Let them fall back in shame
        Who want to see my hurt;
15 Let them be dumb who jeer.
        "A-ha, A-ha" to me.

8. 16 Let all men who seek You
        Be glad and in You joy;
Who Your salvation love
        Say, "Glory to the LORD!"
17 Though I'm in want and poor,
        The Lord takes thought of me.
My Help, my Savior, come!
        O God, do not delay!
