8 O let me with the morning light Thy loving kindness [hear and] see; For in my lowest state I place My confidence [alone] in thee. The way which thou wouldst have me go, [Clearly] do thou make known to me; For I for thy conduct and help Lift up my [craving] soul to thee.
9 Lord save me from mine enemies, [For still] with thee my self I hide;
10 Teach me to do thy holy will, Thou art my God and [surest] guide. Thy spirit and his work is good, [Safely] lead thou my soul in peace (Through this false wicked world) into The land of [truth and] uprightness.
11 Revive and quicken me, O Lord, For thy great [name and] mercies sake▪ And for thy truth and righteousness, My [humbled] soul from trouble take.
