1 |
Lord, haste me to deliver; |
|
|
|
|
with speed, Lord, succour me. |
|
2 |
Let them that for my soul do seek |
|
|
|
|
shamd and confounded be: |
|
|
Turnd back be they, and shamd, |
|
|
|
|
that in my hurt delight. |
|
3 |
Turnd back be they, Ha, ha! that say, |
|
|
|
|
their shaming to requite. |
|

|
4 |
In thee let all be glad, |
|
|
|
|
and joy that seek for thee: |
|
|
Let them who thy salvation love |
|
|
|
|
say still, God praised be. |
|
5 |
I poor and needy am; |
|
|
|
|
come, Lord, and make no stay: |
|
|
My help thou and delivrer art; |
|
|
|
|
O Lord, make no delay. |
