A Psalm of Complaint and of Praise.

1 For the choir director. A Psalm of David.
(A)In You, O Lord, I have taken refuge;
Let me never (B)be ashamed;
(C)In Your righteousness deliver me.
2
(D)Incline Your ear to me, rescue me quickly;
Be to me a (E)rock of (a)strength,
A stronghold to save me.
3
For You are my (b)rock and (F)my fortress;
For (G)Your name’s sake You will lead me and guide me.
