81b. Confitebor tibi

1 Thee will I praise with my whole heart
my Lord my God alwaies:
Even in the presence of the gods
I will advance thy praise.
2 Toward thy holy Temple, I
will look and worship thee:
And praised in my thankfull mouth
thy holy Name shall be.

Even for thy loving-kindnesse sake,
and for thy truth withall:
For thou thy Name hast by thy Word
advanced over all.
3 When I did call, thou heardest me,
and thou hast made also
The power of increased strength
within my soule to grow.

4 Yea all the Kings on earth they shall
give praise to thee O Lord:
For they of thy most holy mouth
have heard the mighty word.
5 They of the waies of God the Lord
in singing shall intreate:
Because the glory of the Lord
it is exceeding great.

6 The Lord is high and yet he doth
behold the lowly sprite:
But he (contemning) knowes afarre
the proud and lofty wight.
7 Although in midst of trouble I
do walk, yet shall I stand,
Renewed by thee, O my Lord,
thou wilt stretch out thy hand.

Upon the wrath of all my foes,
and saved shall I be
By thy right hand: the Lord God will
performe his work to me.
8 Thy mercy Lord indures for aye,
Lord do me not forsake:
Forsake me not that am the work
which thine own hand did make.
