O LORD LISTEN

Psalm 17   July 19, 2019

O LORD LISTEN

O Lord, listen to me

My lips do not speak lies

O Lord, hear my plea

You’ll see that I am right

You test me in the night

By the words of your own lips

Even in my wildest dreams

My feet have not slipped

O Lord, listen to me

My lips do not speak lies

O Lord, hear my plea

You’ll see that I am right

I pray and you answer

You hear my prayer, O lord, you

Show the power of your love

To men whose heart is toward you

I am the apple of your eye

Keep me under your wing

Though enemies surround me

I worship only you, my King

They are hard hearted men

They have tracked me down

You see they surround me

To throw me to the ground

Rise up to face them, Lord

Rescue me with your sword

With your own hand and word

Save me from such men, O Lord

You satisfy the hunger of your loved ones

Our sons have plenty of love to share

I will wake to see your face O Lord

I will wake to see that you are there.
