1 My soul for Thy salvation faints,
but still I hope in Thee;
I long to see Thy promised help,
when Thou shalt comfort me.

2 Thy statues I do not forget,
though wasting grief I know;
Thy servant's days are few, O Lord;
when wilt Thou judge my foe?

3 The proud, disdainful of Thy law,
entrap me wrongfully;
O Thou, whose law is just and true,
help and deliver me.

4 Almost consumed, yet from Thy law
I have not turned away;
in lovingkindness give me strength,
that I may still obey.
