I love the LORD because He hears my pleading
He's heeded me; through life I'll call on Him.
Bound by the rope of death and Sheol's terrors
In deep distress I grief and trouble found.
Then in the LORD's name in prayer I called
"O LORD, I pray to You, deliver my sou!"
Our God, the Lord, is merciful and righteous
Gracious, the LORD preserved the simple ones.
When I was low, to me He gave salvation
Turn back again, my soul, and be at rest.
Rest, for the LORD has dealt well with you
My helpless soul you have delivered from death.
