Representative Text

1. In your wrath and hot displeasure,
Chasten not your servant, Lord;
Let your mercy, without measure,
Help and peace to me afford.
Heavy is my tribulation,
Sore my punishment has been;
Broken by your indignation,
I am troubled by my sin.

2. With my burden of transgression,
Heavy laden, overborne,
Humbled low I make confession,
For my folly now I mourn.
Weak and wounded, I implore you;
Lord, to me your mercy show;
All my pray'r is now before you,
All my trouble well you know.

3. Darkness gathers, foes assail me,
But I answer not a word;
All my friends desert and fail me,
Only Thou my cry hast heard.
Lord, in you am I confiding;
You will answer when I call,
Lest my foes, the good deriding,
Triumph in your servant's fall.

4. I am prone to halt and stumble;
Grief and sorrow dwell within;
Shame and guilt my spirit humble,
I am sorry for my sin.
Lord, my God, do not forsake me,
Let me know that you are near;
Under your protection take me;
As my Savior now appear.
