Psalm 5
Words: The Psalter for Christian Worship, Michael Morgan

Music: LM |
"Rockingham" arr. Edward Miller, 1790 |
A Morning Prayer
O hear the words I speak, my God.
To my unuttered sighs attend;
And from Thine overwhelming throne
To my frail spirit, grace extend.
For early shall my prayers ascend
Like incense rising to the sky;
In confidence, I make my plea,
And in Thy faithfulness rely.
Thy heart delights in all things good,
And evil flees if Thou art there;
Thy truth will over pride prevail,
And justice shall be brought to bear.
But through the bounty of Thy love
Among Thy chosen I am cast,
O lead me forth in righteousness,
And bring me safely home at last.
