Out of the Depths (130)

`Vindicate_ me, O God, and plead my cause against an un_ / faithful nation.
De `liver me from the deceitful and_ / unjust one.
`For you are the God_ / of my strength. • `Why have you re / jected me?
`Why do I go mourning be_ cause of the oppression of the / enemy?
`Send out your light and your / faithful care_.
`Let them / lead~ me.
`Let them bring me to your holy hill_, to your / dwelling place.
`Then_ I will go_ to the altar / of~ God, +
to `God_, my ex / ceeding joy.
`I will praise you on the harp, O God_ / my~ God.
(Ref)
`Why_ are you in des / pair, my soul?
`Why are you disturbed with / in~ me?
`Hope in God! For I shall still_ / praise~ him,
my `Savior, my_ helper, / and my God.
