When (A)my spirit felt weak within me,
You knew my path.
In the way where I walk
They have (B)hidden a trap for me.
Look to the right and see;
For there is (C)no one who regards me favorably;
[a]There is no (D)escape for me;
(E)No one cares for my soul.

I cried out to You, Lord;
I said, “You are (F)my refuge,
My (G)portion in the (H)land of the living.
(I)Give Your attention to my cry,
For I have been (J)brought very low;
Rescue me from my persecutors,
For they are too (K)strong for me.
