Be gracious to me, God, for a man has ^(F1)(C1)trampled upon me; ^(F2)Fighting all day long he ^(C2)oppresses me.

My enemies have ^(C1)trampled upon me all day long, For ^(F1)they are many who ^(C2)fight proudly against me.

^(F1)When I am ^(C1)afraid, ^(F2)I will ^(C2)put my trust in You.

^(C1)In God, whose word I praise, In God I have put my trust; I shall not be afraid. ^(C2)What can mere ^(F1)mortals do to me?

All day long they ^(C1)distort my words; All their ^(F1)(C2)thoughts are against me for evil.

They ^(F1)(C1)attack, they lurk, They ^(C2)watch my ^(F2)steps, As they have ^(C3)waited to take my ^(F3)life.

Because of their wickedness, will there be an ^(C1)escape for them? In anger ^(C2)make the peoples fall down, God!

You ^(C1)have taken account of my ^(F1)miseries; Put my ^(C2)tears in Your bottle. Are they not in ^(C3)Your book?

Then my enemies will ^(C1)turn back ^(C2)on the day when I call; This I know, ^(F1)that ^(C3)God is for me.

In God, whose word I praise, In the LORD, whose word I praise,

In God I have put my ^(F1)trust, I shall not be afraid. What can mankind do to me?

Your ^(C1)vows are binding upon me, God; I will render thanksgiving offerings to You.

For You have ^(C1)saved my soul from death, ^(F1)Indeed ^(C2)my feet from stumbling, So that I may ^(C3)walk before God In the ^(C4)light of the ^(F2)living.
