1 O God, be thou the Judge, And plead my righteous cause, Against a Nation of bad men, Who violate thy Laws. From false men of deceit, Men of Iniquity, Do thou, the great and righteous God, Save and deliver me.
2 Thou, Lord, art all my strength, Why do I mourning go, As if I were cast off by thee, Oppressed by my foe?
3 Send out thy Light and Truth, Let them conduct me still; And bring me to thy Tabernacles Upon thy holy hill.
4 I'll to God's Altar go, To God my greatest joy; O God my God, to sing thy praise My harp will I employ.
4 I'le to God's Altar go, To God my greatest joy; O God my God, to sing thy praise My harp will I employ.
