Lyrics
Be gracious to me, O God,
For people trample on me;
All day long foes oppress me;
My enemies trample on me all day long,
For many fight against me.
O Most High, when I am afraid, I put my trust in you.
In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I am not afraid;
What can mere mortals do to me?
All day they seek to hurt my cause;
Their evil thoughts against me.
Stir up strife, they watch my steps.
Hoping to take—to take my life, repay them
For their crimes; cast them down God!
O Most High, when I am afraid, I put my trust in you.
In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I am not afraid;
What can mere mortals do to me?
You've kept track of my misery;
Put my tears in your bottle.
Are they not in your record?
Then my enemies will retreat
On the day when I call.
O Most High, when I am afraid, I put my trust in you.
In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I am not afraid;
What can mere mortals do to me?
This I know, that God is for me.
In God, whose word I praise,
In the Lord, whose word I praise,
in God I trust; I am not afraid.
What can mere mortals do to me?
My vows to you I must perform,
God I give thank-offerings.
For you've saved my soul from death,
And my feet from falling, so that I may walk
Before God in light of life.
O Most High, when I am afraid, I put my trust in you.
In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I am not afraid;
What can mere mortals do to me?
What can mere mortals do to me?
