Representative Text

1 O Lord, my God, for Thy Name's sake
In mercy deal with me;
Because Thy kindness is so great,
From trouble set me free.

2 O Thou Who art my Lord and God,
Thy gracious help extend,
And for Thy loving-kindness' sake
O save me and defend.

3 My voice shall greatly bless the Lord
And sing His worthy praise,
And I amid the multitude
My thankful song will raise.

4 The Lord be praised, for ever near
The helpless poor He stands,
Protecting them with wondrous power
From their oppressors' hands.

The Psalter: with responsive readings, 1912
