To you I lift up my soul

1
To you, LORD, I lift up my soul.
2
My God, I have trusted in you. Don’t let me be shamed. Don’t let my enemies triumph over me.
3
Yes, no one who waits for you will be shamed. They will be shamed who deal treacherously without cause.
4
Show me your ways, LORD. Teach me your paths.
5
Guide me in your truth, and teach me, for you are the God of my salvation. I wait for you all day long.
6
LORD, remember your tender mercies and your loving kindness, for they are from old times.
7
Don’t remember the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions. Remember me according to your loving kindness, for your goodnesssake, LORD.
8
Good and upright is the LORD, therefore he will instruct sinners in the way.
9
He will guide the humble in justice. He will teach the humble his way.
10
All the paths of the LORD are loving kindness and truth to such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.
11
For your name’s sake, LORD, pardon my iniquity, for it is great.
12
What man is he who fears the LORD? He shall instruct him in the way that he shall choose.
13
His soul will dwell at ease. His offspring will inherit the land.
14
The friendship of the LORD is with those who fear him. He will show them his covenant.
15
My eyes are ever on the LORD, for he will pluck my feet out of the net.
16
Turn to me, and have mercy on me, for I am desolate and afflicted.
17
The troubles of my heart are enlarged. Oh bring me out of my distresses.
18
Consider my affliction and my travail. Forgive all my sins.
19
Consider my enemies, for they are many. They hate me with cruel hatred.
20
Oh keep my soul, and deliver me. Let me not be disappointed, for I take refuge in you.
21
Let integrity and uprightness preserve me, for I wait for you.
22
God, redeem Israel out of all his troubles.

To you I lift up my soul

1
Unto thee, O Lord , do I lift up my soul.
2
O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me.
3
Yea, let none that wait on thee be ashamed: let them be ashamed which transgress without cause.
4
Shew me thy ways, O Lord ; teach me thy paths.
5
Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day.
6
Remember, O Lord , thy tender mercies and thy lovingkindnesses; for they have been ever of old.(a)
7
Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions: according to thy mercy remember thou me for thy goodness’ sake, O Lord .
8
Good and upright is the Lord : therefore will he teach sinners in the way.
9
The meek will he guide in judgment: and the meek will he teach his way.
10
All the paths of the Lord are mercy and truth unto such as keep his covenant and his testimonies.
11
For thy name’s sake, O Lord , pardon mine iniquity; for it is great.
12
What man is he that feareth the Lord ? him shall he teach in the way that he shall choose.
13
His soul shall dwell at ease; and his seed shall inherit the earth.(b)
14
The secret of the Lord is with them that fear him; and he will shew them his covenant.(c)
15
Mine eyes are ever toward the Lord ; for he shall pluck my feet out of the net.(d)
16
Turn thee unto me, and have mercy upon me; for I am desolate and afflicted.
17
The troubles of my heart are enlarged: O bring thou me out of my distresses.
18
Look upon mine affliction and my pain; and forgive all my sins.
19
Consider mine enemies; for they are many; and they hate me with cruel hatred.(e)
20
O keep my soul, and deliver me: let me not be ashamed; for I put my trust in thee.
21
Let integrity and uprightness preserve me; for I wait on thee.
22
Redeem Israel, O God, out of all his troubles.
