In Thee, O Lord, I Put My Trust
- In thee, O Lord, I put my trust,
I call upon thy name;
O save me in thy righteousness,
nor let me suffer shame. - Bow down thine ear to my request,
and swift deliv’rance send;
be thou to me a rock of strength,
a fortress to defend. - Since thou my rock and fortress art,
my leader be, and guide;
from all temptation rescue me,
thou dost my strength abide. - To thee my spirit I commend;
redemption is with thee,
O thou Jehovah, God of truth,
who hast delivered me. - I hate all those that love the false,
my trust is in the Lord;
I will be glad, and joyfully
thy mercy will record. - For my affliction thou hast seen,
and known my many woes;
thou hast not let me be enslaved,
but freed me from my foes. - Show mercy, Lord, to me distressed,
and send my soul relief;
my life is spent with bitterness,
my strength consumed with grief. - My life has aged grown with woe,
with sighs my years decay;
my eye is worn for very grief:
I pine and waste away. - My foes have made me a reproach,
my state my neighbors see;
my friends, appalled at my approach,
turn them about and flee. - For I have heard defaming tongues,
and marked the terror rife,
when all in league deliberate
to take away my life. - But, Lord, in thee is all my trust;
“Thou art my God,” I cried.
My life, my times are in thy hand,
I in thy strength confide.
