Refrain:In God I trust, and will not fear. 1Have mercy on me, O God, for they trample over me; • all day long they assault and oppress me. 2My adversaries trample over me all the day long; • many are they that make proud war against me. 3In the day of my fear I put my trust in you, • in God whose word I praise. 4In God I trust, and will not fear, • for what can flesh do to me? R 5All day long they wound me with words; • their every thought is to do me evil. 6They stir up trouble; they lie in wait; • marking my steps, they seek my life. 7Shall they escape for all their wickedness? • In anger, O God, cast the peoples down. 8You have counted up my groaning; put my tears into your bottle; • are they not written in your book? R 9Then shall my enemies turn back on the day when I call upon you; • this I know, for God is on my side. 10In God whose word I praise, in the Lord whose word I praise, • in God I trust and will not fear: what can flesh do to me? 11To you, O God, will I fulfil my vows; • to you will I present my offerings of thanks, 12For you will deliver my soul from death and my feet from falling, • that I may walk before God in the light of the living. Refrain:In God I trust, and will not fear. Faithful God, your deliverance is nearer than we know; free us from fear and help us to find courage in your Word, Jesus Christ our Lord. |
