Psalm 143A: Psalm 143:1-6
Invitation, 66.66.D. [G]
| 1. |
1 My prayer, Jehovah, hear
And to my suppliant cry
In faithfulness give ear;
In righteousness reply.
2 In judgment call not me,
Thy servant, to be tried;
No living man can be
In Thy sight justified.
|
| 2. |
3 The foe my soul has sought,
My life to earth doth tread;
To darkness I am brought,
As those that long are dead.
4 My spirit, therefore, vexed,
Is overwhelmed within;
My heart in me perplexed
And desolate has been.
|
| 3. |
5 Yet I recall to mind
What ancient days record,
Thy works of every kind,
Which thought to me afford.
6 And I spread forth my hands
To Thee beseechingly;
My soul as weary lands
Is thirsting after Thee.
