Appears in 11 hymnals Topics: Prayer For Deliverance from Enemies First Line: Lord, hear me in distress Lyrics: 1 Lord, hear me in distress, Regard my suppliant cry, And in Thy faithfulness And righteousness reply. In judgment do not cause Thy servant to be tried; Before Thy holy laws No man is justified. 2 The enemy has sought My soul in dust to tread; To darkness I am brought, Forgotten as the dead. My spirit, crushed with grief, Is sad and overborne; My heart finds no relief, But desolate I mourn. 3 Recalling former days And all Thy wondrous deeds, The mem'ry of Thy ways To hope and comfort leads. to Thee I stretch my hands, Let me not plead in vain; I wait as weary lands Wait for refreshing rain. 4 My failing spirit see, O Lord, to me make haste; Hide not Thy face from me, Lest bitter death I taste, O let the morn return, Let mercy light my day; For Thee in faith I yearn, O guide me in the way. 5 Lord, save me from my foe, To Thee for help I flee; Teach me Thy way to know, I have no God but Thee. By Thy good Spirit lead From trouble and distress, My erring feet shall tread The path of uprightness. 6 O Lord, for Thy Name's sake Revive my fainting heart; My soul from trouble take, For just and true Thou art. Remove my enemy, My cruel foe reward; In mercy rescue me Who am Thy servant, Lord. Scripture: Psalm 143 Used With Tune: BRADBURY

On Thy enemies, the heathen, Be Thy indignation poured; Smite the kingdoms that defy Thee, Calling not upon Thy Name. They have long devoured Thy people And have swept Thy land with flame. 3 O remember not against us Evil by our fathers wrought; Haste to help us in Thy mercy, Near to ruin we are brought; Help us, God of our salvation, For the glory of Thy Name; For Thy Name's sake come and save us, Take away our sin and shame. 4 Let Thy foes no longer scorn Thee, Now avenge Thy servants slain; Loose the pris'ner, save the dying, All Thy enemies restrain; Then Thy flock, Thy chosen people, Unto Thee Thy thanks shall raise, And to ev'ry generation, We will sing Thy glorious praise.

A bitter cup Thou givest us Of misery and dread. 4 A glorious banner Thou hast giv'n To those who fear Thy Name, A banner to display abroad, And thus the truth proclaim. 5 That Thy beloved may be saved And from their foes set free, Help with the might of Thy right hand, In mercy answer me. 6 God in His holiness hath said: I will triumphant be, All heathen lands I claim as Mine, And they shall bow to Me. 7 Now, therefore, who will lead us on Sin's strongholds to possess?
