Psalm 5

For the choir director: A psalm of David, to be accompanied by the flute.

O Lord, hear me as I pray;
    pay attention to my groaning.
Listen to my cry for help, my King and my God,

Listen to my voice in the morning, Lord.
    Each morning I bring my requests to you and wait expectantly.
