Prayer for Help in Trouble.

¹ I ^(C1)cry out with my voice to the LORD;
With my voice I ^(C2)implore the LORD for compassion.

² I pour out my complaint before Him;
I declare my ^(C2)trouble before Him.

³ When ^(C1)my spirit felt weak within me,
You knew my path.
In the way where I walk
They have ^(C2)hidden a trap for me.

⁴ Look to the right and see;
For there is ^(C1)no one who regards me favorably;
^(F1)There is no ^(C2)escape for me;
^(C3)No one cares for my soul.

⁵ I cried out to You, LORD;
I said, "You are ^(C1)my refuge,
My ^(C2)portion in the ^(C3)land of the living.

⁶ "^(C1)Give Your attention to my cry,
For I have been ^(C2)brought very low;
Rescue me from my persecutors,
For they are too ^(C3)strong for me.

⁷ "^(C1)Bring my soul out of prison,
So that I may give thanks to Your name;
The righteous will surround me,
For You will ^(C2)look after me."
