[verse 107] Affliction hath me sore opprest, 〈♫〉〈♫〉
and brought me to death's door: 〈♫〉〈♫〉
O Lord, as thou hast promised, 〈♫〉〈♫〉
so me to life restore. 〈♫〉〈♫〉
[verse 108] The offerings which with heart and voice, 〈♫〉〈♫〉
most frankly I thee give: 〈♫〉〈♫〉
Accept, and teach me how I may 〈♫〉〈♫〉
after thy judgments live. 〈♫〉〈♫〉
[verse 109] My soul is aye so in my hand, 〈♫〉〈♫〉
that dangers me assail: 〈♫〉〈♫〉
Yet do I not thy law forget, 〈♫〉〈♫〉
nor it to keep will fail: 〈♫〉〈♫〉
[verse 110] Although the wicked laid their nets 〈♫〉〈♫〉
to catch me at a bay: 〈♫〉〈♫〉
Yet did I not from thy pre∣cepts 〈♫〉〈♫〉
once swerve or go astray. 〈♫〉〈♫〉
[verse 111] Thy law I have so claim'd alway, 〈♫〉〈♫〉
As mine own he-ri-tage: 〈♫〉〈♫〉
And why? for therein I delight, 〈♫〉〈♫〉
and set my whole courage. 〈♫〉〈♫〉
[verse 112] For evermore I have been bent 〈♫〉〈♫〉
thy statutes to fulfill: 〈♫〉〈♫〉
Ev'n so likewise un-to the ••nd, 〈♫〉〈♫〉
I will con-ti-nue still. 〈♫〉〈♫〉
