Save me, O God, by Thy great Name and judge me by Thy strength,

My prayer hear and to my words, O God, give ear to me.

      A             E             A7      D         C#   E7            A

For they that strang-ers are to me, do up a-gainst me rise,

Op-pres-sors do not care for God, but seek to take my life.

The might-y God my Help-er is, Lo there-fore I am bold.

He tak-eth part with ev-'ry one, that does my soul up-hold.

     A        E              A7        D             C#     E7          A

To all my watch-ful foes He will, their e-vil deeds re-pay,

O for Thy truth's sake cut them off, and take them all a-way.

Lord, of Thy Name, for it is good, Thy prais-es will I sing.

Be-cause He hath de-liv-ered me, from all ad-ver-si-ties,

       C#        D            B            E            D           E7    A    

And His de-sire mine eye hath seen, up-on thine en-e-mies.
