Psalm 43


Judge me O God and my cause against pagans,
They are actually just a bunch of hooligans;
Deliver me from the deceitful unjust man,
It just doesn't seem as part of your plan;
Why dost the God of my strength cast me off?
While some others seem to look at and scoff;
Why mourn because of oppression of my foe?
Which only increases and complicates my woe;
O send out thy light and truth to lead me,
For I wish to follow the path set by thee;
Let them bring me unto thy holy church,
I know there is no need for me to search;
Then to the altar of God with exceeding joy,
Upon a harp I will praise for thee to enjoy;
Why art you disquieted within me O my soul?
For I have gave my life with full control;
My faith is in God and shall yet praise him,
He's always there in joy or when it's grim;
He's the health of my countenance and Lord,
And I will continue in abiding in His Word.
