27e. O LORD, to Thee I Cry

1 O LORD, to Thee I cry;
You are my rock and trust;
O be not silent, lest I die
And slumber in the dust.

2 O hear me when in prayer
Thy favor I entreat;
Hear, while I lift imploring hands
Before Thy mercy seat.

3 O let me have no part
With those that hate the right;
'For as their works, so their reward:
Jehovah will requite.'

4 But blessed be the LORD
Who hearkens when I cry;
The LORD, my strength, my help, my shield
On Him will I rely.

5 His help makes glad my heart,
And songs of praise I sing;
Jehovah is His people's strength,
The stronghold of their king.

6 Bless Thy inheritance,
Our Savior be, I pray;
Supply Thou all Thy people's need,
And be their constant stay.
