1 I cry out to the Lord;I pray to the Lord for mercy.
2 I pour out my problems to him;I tell him my troubles.
3 When I am afraid,you, Lord, know the way out.In the path where I walk,a trap is hidden for me.
4 Look around me and see.No one cares about me.I have no place of safety;no one cares if I live.
5 Lord, I cry out to you.I say, “You are my protection.You are all I want in this life.”
6 Listen to my cry,because I am helpless.Save me from those who are chasing me,because they are too strong for me.
7 Free me from my prison,and then I will praise your name.Then good people will surround me,because you have taken care of me.
