1 MY soul in silence waits on God, My only help [and rock] is he.
2 My Saviour and my strong high place, I shall not [greatly] moved be.
3 How long will ye mischief devise? You by the sword [at last] shall fall: You stand but like a tottering fence, And like a [crazed] bowing wall.
4 Their consult is to cast him down That's set [by God] in dignity. They love to lie; with mouth they bless▪ But they [hate and] curse inwardly.
