084) Psalm 54
8.6.8.6.
1,2 Lord, save me, for thy glorious Name, and in thy strength appear, To judge my cause, accept my pray’r, and to my words give ear.
3 Mere strangers, whom I never wronged, to ruin me designed; And cruel men, that fear no God, against my soul combined.
4,5 But God takes part with all my friends, and he’s the surest guard; The God of truth shall give my foes their falsehood’s just reward:
6 While I my grateful off’rings bring, and sacrifice with joy; And in his praise my time to come delightfully employ.
7 From dreadful danger and distress the Lord hath set me free;
Through him shall I of all my foes the just destruction see.
