1.I with my voice cried to the Lord,
with it made my request:
Poured out to him my plaint, to him
my trouble I expressed.

2.When in me was o'erwhelmed my spirit,
then well thou knew'st my way;
Where I did walk a snare for me
they privily did lay.

3.I looked on my right hand, and viewed,
but none to know me were;
All refuge failed me, no man
did for my soul take care.

4.I cried to thee; I said, Thou art
my refuge, Lord, alone;
And in the land of those that live
thou art my portion.

5.Because I am brought very low,
attend unto my cry:
Me from my persecutors save,
who stronger are than I.

6.From prison bring my soul, that I
thy name may glorify:
The just shall compass me, when thou
with me deal'st bounteously.
