{{LinkText|2|Psalm 17|Psalm 19}}
Arise, my gracious God,
And make the wicked flee;
They are but thy chastising rod,
To drive thy saints to thee.
 
Behold, the sinner dies,
His haughty words are vain;
Here in this life his pleasure lies,
And all beyond is pain.
 
Then let his pride advance,
And boast of all his store;
The Lord is my inheritance,
My soul can wish no more.
 
I hear thy word with love,
And I would fain obey:
Send thy good Spirit from above
To guide me, lest I stray.
 
O who can ever find
The errors of his ways?
Yet with a bold, presumptuous mind
I would not dare transgress.
 
While with my heart and tongue
I spread thy praise abroad,
Accept the worship and the song,
My Savior and my God.}}
