   1. In Thee, O Lord, I put my trust,
         let me not be ashamed;
      As Thou art faithful, rescue me,
         and guide me by Thy pow'r.
      Thou art my fortress and my rock;
         Thou art my strength, O God.
      Deliver me by Thy great pow'r
         from snares laid our for me.

   2. O Lord, Thou hast redeemed my life, 
         Thou faithful God of truth;
      Thou hatest all who pay regard
         to lying vanities.
      I trust Thee God, and will rejoice
         in Thy great mercy, Lord.
      Thou hast not let me fall into
         the hand of enemies.

   3. Have pity, O Eternal One, 
         my life is spent with grief;
      Because of sins my strength has failed;
         my bones are weak and faint.
      I am the scorn of all my foes;
         they shun me in the steet;
      But Thou I trust and know my fate
         lies in Thy hands, O God.

  4.  Eternal One, on thee I call,
         let me not be ashamed;
      But let the wicked be ashamed
         and silent in the grave.
      Strike dumb the foes with lying lips
         who scorn against the just!
      How great Thy goodness which Thou hast
         for those who fear Thy name!
