Four-verse lyric text written by Carl Daw (2005) - Hope Publishing Company in GLORY TO GOD (2013):
"Hear my prayer, O god, and listen to my plea;
faithful, righteous One, give ear and answer me.
Judge me not, I pray; no merit dare I calm;
knowing my own faults, I trust in your just Name.
Hounded by a foe who crushed me to the ground,
I am like the dead or those in prison bound.
Hopeless, numbed by fear, I ponder all your care;
thirsty as parched earth, I lift my hands in prayer.
Answer soon, O God; my spirit faints in me;
do not hide your face, or I will cease to be.
When the morning dawns, make known your love anew;
show me how to walk, for I will trust in you.
Keep me safe, O God, and help me learn your will;
let your Spirit lead through level pathways still.
For your great Name's sake, my griefs and fears dispel;
free me from my foes, that I may serve you well."
