Mine eyes and heart unto the Lord advanced are, For he shall free my feet out of the danger of the snare.
[verse 16] Turn thee to me, O Lord, and mercy on me show, I am left comfortlesse alone, and brought exceeding low. [verse 17] The troubles of mine heart greatly enlarged bee, Out of those deep distresses, Lord, bring me, and set me free.
[verse 18] Look upon my distresse, take notice of my pain, Forgive and pardon all my sins, and make me whole again. [verse 19] O Lord, behold my foes, how they do still increase, Pursuing me with deadly hate that fain would live in peace.
[verse 20] O Lord, preserve my soul, do thou deliver me, And let me not be put to shame, because I trust in thee. [verse 21] Let mine uprightnesse, Lord, and sound integritie, In safety me preserve and deep, for I wait still on thee.

[verse 22] Redeem thine Israel, O Lord, thy people all, From all their trouble and distresse, which daily on them befall.
