[verse 169] O Lorde let my complaynt and crye, before thy face appeare:And as thou hast me promise made, so teache me thee to feare. [verse 170] Mine humble supplication, toward thee, let find acces:And graunt me Lord deliueraunce, for so is thy promes.
[verse 171] Then all my lippes thy prayses speake, after most ample sort:When thou thy statutes hast me taught, wherin standeth all comfort: [verse 172] My tong shall sing and preache thy word and on this wise say shall:Gods famous actes and noble lawes, are iust and perfect all.
[verse 173] Stretch out thy hand I thee beseche, and spedely me saue:For thy commaundments to obserue, chosen, O Lorde I haue. [verse 174] Of thee alone, Lorde I craue health, for other I know none:And in thy law and nothyng els, I doo delyte alone.
[verse 175] Graunt me therfore long dayes to lyue, thy name to magnifye:

And of thy iudgements mercifull, let me thy fauor trye. [verse 176] For I was lost and went astraye, muche lyke a waydryng shepe:Oh seke me, for I haue not fayled, thy commaundmentes to kepe.
