Psalm 54 — Hear Me, Lord
A Kyrielle
My enemy is arrogant,
Attacking me with vicious glee.
Oh God, to me Your comfort grant.
Oh, hear me, Lord; save me.
Let their own deeds recoil on them:
Their evil, slander, cruelty;
The fruits of their actions condemn.
Oh, hear me, Lord; save me.
They hate me for my self, my soul;
They wish that I would cease to be,
For who I am they can’t control.
Oh, hear me, Lord; save me.
And I will praise Your goodness, Lord,
For You’ll ensure my victory.
My rival’s debt they can’t afford.
Oh, hear me, Lord; save me.
