  1. I love the LORD, for He has heard my voice—my appeal for mercy.
  2. Because He has inclined His ear to me, I will call on Him as long as I live.

  4. Then I called on the name of the LORD: “O LORD, deliver my soul!”
  5. The LORD is gracious and righteous; our God is full of compassion.
  6. The LORD preserves the simplehearted; I was helpless, and He saved me.
  7. Return to your rest, O my soul, for the LORD has been good to you.
  8. For You have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling.
  9. I will walk before the LORD in the land of the living.
  10. I believed, therefore I said, “I am greatly afflicted.”

  13. I will lift the cup of salvation and call on the name of the LORD.
  14. I will fulfill my vows to the LORD in the presence of all His people.

  16. Truly, O LORD, I am Your servant; I am Your servant, the son of Your maidservant; You have broken my bonds.
  17. I will offer to You a sacrifice of thanksgiving and call on the name of the LORD.
  18. I will fulfill my vows to the LORD in the presence of all His people,
  19. in the courts of the LORD’s house, in your midst, O Jerusalem. Hallelujah!
