Regard My Grief and Rescue Me

Regard my grief and res­cue me

For I do not for­get Thy laws;

As Thou hast pro­mised

save me

Lord

Redeem my soul

and plead my cause.

Far is sal­va­tion from the men

Who do not seek Thy sta­tutes

Lord;

Great are Thy mer­cies

quick­en me

According to Thy ho­ly Word.

I bear the spite of many foes

Yet from Thy law I do not swerve;

I saw the faith­less and was grieved

For they Thy Word do not ob­serve.

Behold how I Thy pre­cepts love!

In kind­ness

Lord

rev­ive Thou me;

The sum of all Thy Word is truth;

Thy Word ab­ides eter­nal­ly.
