A Call for Deliverance
For the choir director. Davidic. To bring remembrance.

“1 God, deliver me.
Hurry to help me, Lord!

2 Let those who seek my life
be disgraced and confounded;
let those who wish me harm
be driven back and humiliated.
3 Let those who say, ‘Aha, aha!’
retreat because of their shame.

4 Let all who seek You rejoice and be glad in You;
let those who love Your salvation
continually say, ‘God is great!’

5 I am afflicted and needy;
hurry to me, God.
You are my help and my deliverer;
Lord, do not delay.”
