Mmm In thee, O Lord, do I put my trust; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in your righteousness. Bow down thine ear to me; deliver me speedily: be my strong rock, for a house of defence to save me. [chorus] For thou art my rock and my fortress; therefore in your name's sake lead me and guide me. Pull me out of the net that they have laid privily for me, for thou art my strength. Thou art my strength. Into thine hand I commit my spirit: thou hast redeemed me, O Lord God of truth. I have hated those who regard lying vanities: but I trust in the Lord. I will be glad and rejoice in thy mercy: for thou hast considered my pleas; thou has known my soul in adversities; [chorus] For thou art my rock and my fortress; therefore in your name's sake lead me, and guide me. Pull me out of the net that they have laid privily for me, for thou art my strength. Thou art my strength. God's never shut me up in the hands of my enemies. He gave breath to me, He bleeds for me. Thanks to His grace I have a great space about my feet. Thank you Lord for gifts given, please have mercy upon me, have mercy upon me Let me keep all things, all things I'll part from nothing I need more things, more things I beg for my blessings Uh, uh, uh O Lord, I am in trouble: mine eye is consumed with grief, yea, from my soul to my teeth. Oh Lord, hear my plea for my life is spent with grief. Grateful for my years, and everyone I hold dear, though I can't stop sighing: i know my strength fails because of my iniquity and it consumes me Uh, uh, uh I was a reproach among all my enemies, and even to those I once called friend. You can bet fear even comes from my acquaintance: they don't know what to believe, they don't know what they see looking at me. Crowded when it's great, now I'm down and out why all they do is flee from me. I am forgotten as a dead man out of mind: I am like a broken vessel. For thou art my rock and my fortress; therefore in your name's sake lead me and guide me. Pull me out of the net that they have laid privily for me. For thou art my strength. For thou art my strength. I've heard the slander of many: been victim like caged prey for days. fear was on my every side while they took counsel together against me, seeking to destroy me. Every day they devised to cause me strife, twist the knife, and take away my life. But I trusted in thee, O Lord: Mmmmm I said, You are my God. Oooooo My times are in thy hand: deliver me from the wrath of my enemies, and from them that persecute me. I fight so the world knows thee. Essence of All Things, i humble myself, make thy face to shine upon me, thy servant: save me for thy mercies' sake for the light of day is all the grace I seek Mmmm Let me not be ashamed, O Lord; for I have called upon thee: let the wicked be ashamed, let them be quiet in the grave. Let the lying lips be put to silence; which speak grievous things. Proudly and contemptuously against the righteous. Speaking false on all they see oooo For thou art my rock and my fortress; therefore in your name's sake lead me, and guide me. Pull me out of the net that they have laid privily for me: for thou art my strength. Thou art my strength For thou art my strength For thou art my strength
