C.  Have mercy on me, have mercy on me O God,
                           Fa
    in you my soul takes refuge,
           Re-
    I take refuge in the shadow of your wings
      Sol               Do
    until the danger is over.

A.  I WANT TO SING ...


C.  I call on God, I call on God the Most High,
    to God who has done great things for me,
    who sends to me from heaven salvation
    from the hands of my enemies.


    Do

C.  Have mercy on me, have mercy on me O God,
    I lie in the midst of lions,
    lions greedy to devour men,
    their teeth are spears and arrows.


    Do
A.  I WANT TO SING ...


C.  Have mercy on me, have mercy on me O God,
    they laid a net for my steps, 
    they dug a pit for me,
    but fell into it themselves.


    Do
A.  I WANT TO SING ...


C.  My heart is ready, my heart is ready O God,
    I mean to sing and play for you;
    awake, awake my soul,
    I will awake the dawn.


    Do
A.  I WANT TO SING ...


C.  I will praise you, Lord, among the peoples,  
    to you I will sing hymns among the nations,
    for your love is higher than the heavens,
    your faithfulness than the clouds.
