Be Merciful, O God
- Be merciful, O God,
be merciful to me;
beneath your shelt’ring wings I hide,
’til raging storms shall cease.
I cry to God Most High,
who does his will for me.
He sends from heav’n and puts to shame
the one who tramples me. - God sends his truth and love.
I dwell with lions fierce,
with beastly men whose tongues are swords,
whose teeth are shafts and spears.
Above the highest heav’ns,
O God, exalted be!
And over all the earth below
display your majesty. - For me they spread a net;
my soul was overwhelmed.
They dug a pit along my path,
but fell in it themselves.
My heart is steadfast, God;
with music I will sing.
Awake, my soul! Wake, harp and lyre!
My song the dawn will bring. - Among the nations, Lord,
to you my praise resounds,
your steadfast love transcends the heav’ns,
your faithfulness the clouds.
Above the highest heav’ns,
O God, exalted be!
And over all the earth below
display your majesty.
