Psalm 43
Words: The Bay Psalm Book
1 Judge me, O God, and plead my cause
from nation merciless
from the guileful and man unjust,
O send thou me redress.
2 For of my strength thou art the God,
why cast's thou me thee fro;
why go I mourning for the sore
oppression of the foe?
3 Thy light o send out and thy truth,
let them lead and bring me
unto thy holy hill, and where
thy tabernacles be.
4 Then will I to God's altar go,
to God my joy's gladness:
upon the harp o God my God
I will thy praise express.
5 My soul O wherefore dost thou bow
thy self down heavily;
and wherefore in me makest thou
a stir tumultuously?
Hope thou in God, because I shall
with praise him yet advance:
who is my God, also he is
health of my countenance.
