| | | Prayer for Deliverance |
| |
| |
| [1] | JUDGE me, O God, and plead my cause against an ungodly nation: Oh deliver me from the deceitful and unjust man. |
| [2] | For thou art the God of my strength; why hast thou cast me off? Why go I mourning because 1 of the oppression of the enemy? |
| [3] | Oh send out thy light and thy truth; let them lead me: Let them bring me unto thy holy hill, And to thy tabernacles. |
| [4] | Then will I go unto the altar of God, Unto God my 2 exceeding joy; And upon the harp will I praise thee, O God, my God. |
| [5] | Why art thou cast down, O my soul? And why art thou disquieted within me? Hope thou in God; for I shall yet praise him, Who is the help of my countenance, and my God. |
