Hearken to my voice, O Lord, when I call; have mercy on me and answer me.
1. The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom then shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom then shall I be afraid?
5. One thing have I asked of the Lord; one thing I seek; that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life.
6. To behold the fair beauty of the Lord; and to seek him in his temple.
Hearken to my voice, O Lord, when I call; have mercy on me and answer me.
7. For in the day of trouble he shall keep me safe in his shelter; he shall hide me in the secrecy of his dwelling, and set me high upon a rock.
8. Even now he lifts up my hand above my enemies round about me.
9. Therefore I will offer in his dwelling an oblation with sounds of great gladness; I will sing and make music to the Lord.
Hearken to my voice, O Lord, when I call; have mercy on me and answer me.
11. You speak in my heart and say, "Seek my face," Your face, Lord, will I seek.
12. Hide not your face from me, nor turn away your servant in displeasure.
13. You have been my helper; cast me not away; do not forsake me, O God of my salvation.
Hearken to my voice, O Lord, when I call; have mercy on me and answer me.
