  1.  Eternal God, my hope and refuge;
      Thou art my rock and fortress;
      O God incline Thine ear to me;
      Save me from the unjust man.
      Thou art my help and trust, O Lord;
      My praise shall always be to Thee;
      My mouth is filled with praise and glory,
      O God, forsake me not.

  2.  Eternal God, be not far from me!
      O God, make haste to help me!
      I'll hope and praise Thee more and more;
      I will tell of Thy great works.
      Lord, when I'm old forsake me not;
      My enemies against me plan;
      They say, His God will not protect him,
      O God, forsake me not.

  3.  Eternal God, our great creator;
      Thy justice reaches heaven;
      Thou who hast shown me many trials;
      Thou shalt give me life once more.
      My lips will shout for joy, O God;
      When I sing songs of praise to Thee;
      Thou Holy One who hast redeemed me;
      O God, forsake me not.
