A Prayer of David. Bow down your ear, O LORD, hear me: for I am poor and needy.
Tried but Trusting
Preserve my soul; for I am holy: O you my God, save your servant that trusts in you.
Be merciful to me, O Lord: for I cry to you daily.
Rejoice the soul of your servant: for to you, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.
For you, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive; and plenteous in mercy to all them that call upon you.
Give ear, O LORD, to my prayer; and attend to the voice of my supplications.
In the day of my trouble I will call upon you: for you will answer me.
Among the gods there is none like to you, O Lord; neither are there any works like to your works.
All nations whom you have made shall come and worship before you, O Lord; and shall glorify your name.
For you are great, and do wondrous things: you are God alone.
Teach me your way, O LORD; I will walk in your truth: unite my heart to fear your name.
I will praise you, O Lord my God, with all my heart: and I will glorify your name for evermore.
For great is your mercy toward me: and you have delivered my soul from the lowest hell.
O God, the proud are risen against me, and the assemblies of violent men have sought after my soul; and have not set you before them.
But you, O Lord, art a God full of compassion, and gracious, longsuffering, and plenteous in mercy and truth.
O turn to me, and have mercy upon me; give your strength to your servant, and save the son of your maidservant.
Show me a token for good; that they which hate me may see it, and be ashamed: because you, LORD, have helped me, and comforted me.
