1 I’ve taken refuge in you, Lord.Don’t let me ever be put to shame!
2 Deliver me and rescue me by your righteousness!Bend your ear toward me and save me!
3 Be my rock of refugewhere I can always escape.You commanded that my life be savedbecause you are my rock and my fortress.
4 My God, rescue me from the power of the wicked;rescue me from the grip of the wrongdoer and the oppressor
5 because you are my hope, Lord.You, Lord, are the one I’ve trusted since childhood.
6 I’ve depended on you from birth—you cut the cord when I came from my mother’s womb.My praise is always about you.
