:''1574 Version'' | |||
Thou art, O Lord, my strength and stay, | |||
The succour which I crave; | |||
Neglect me not, lest I be like | |||
To them that go to grave. | |||
The voice of thy suppliant hear, | |||
That unto thee doth cry, | |||
When I lift up my hands unto | |||
Thy holy ark most high. | |||
Repute me not among the sort | |||
Of wicked and pervert, | |||
That speak right fair unto their friends, | |||
And think full ill in heart. | |||
According to their handiwork | |||
As they deserve indeed, | |||
And after their inventions, | |||
Let them receive their meed. | |||
For they regard nothing God's works | |||
His law, nor yet his lore, | |||
Therefore will he them and their seed | |||
Destroy for evermore. | |||
To render thanks unto the Lord, | |||
How great a cause have I? | |||
My voice, my prayer, and my complaint, | |||
That heard so willingly. | |||
He is my shield and fortitude, | |||
My buckler in distress; | |||
My hope, my health, my heart's relief; | |||
My song shall him confess. | |||
He is our strength and our defense, | |||
Our enemies to resist, | |||
The health and the salvation | |||
Of his elect by Christ. | |||
Thy people and thy heritage, | |||
Lord, bless, guide, and preserve; | |||
Increase them, Lord, and rule their hearts, | |||
That they may never swerve.}} | |||
