A Prayer - Psalm 143 - Constanza

O Lord God, hear me speedily, My heart within is desolate, In Thee I trust, for You are great, I stretch forth my hands unto Thee, I muse on the work of Thy hands, Lead me, Lord, into upright lands, My soul is like a land thirsty, Instruct me, Lord, how to be still, Teach me, O God, to do Thy will, Redeem me from mine enemy, Hear my prayer, O Lord, give ear, Deliver me from those I fear, In Thy faithfulness, answer me, Quicken me, Lord, for Thy name's sake, Help me know the way I should take, O Lord God, hear me speedily, I stretch forth my hands unto Thee, My soul is like a land thirsty, Redeem me from mine enemy, In Thy faithfulness, answer me. 07.22.2020
