To God with mournful Voice

Hymnal: A New Version of the Psalms of David #CXLII (1760) Lyrics: 1 To God with mournful Voice in deep Distress I pray'd; 2 Made him the Umpire of my Cause, my Wrongs before Him laid. 3 Thou didst my Steps direct, when my griev'd Soul despair'd; For where I thought to walk secure, they had their Traps prepar'd. 4 I look'd but found no Friend to own me in Distress; All Refuge fail'd, no Man vouchsaf'd his Pity or Redress. 5 To God at last I pray'd, thou, Lord, my Refuge art, My Portion in the Land of Life, 'till Life itself depart. 6 Reduc'd to greatest Straits, to Thee I make my Moan; O save me from oppressive Foes, for me too pow'rful grown, 7 That I may praise thy Name, my Soul from Prison bring; Whilst of thy kind Regard to me, assembled Saints shall sing. Scripture: Psalm 142 Languages: English
