Hear my prayer, O God, incline Thine ear!
Thyself from my petition do not hide.
Hear my prayer, O God, incline Thine ear!
Thyself from my petition do not hide.
Thyself from my petition do not hide.
Take heed to me! Hear how in prayer I mourn to Thee,
Hear how in prayer I mourn to Thee,
Hear how in prayer I mourn to Thee,
Take heed to me! Take heed to me!
Without Thee all is dark, I have no guide.
I have no guide. No guide.
Without Thee all is dark, I have no guide.
I have no guide.
Hear my prayer, O God, incline Thine ear!
Thyself from my petition do not hide.
Thyself from my petition do not hide.
Hear my prayer, O God, incline Thine ear!
Hear my prayer, O God, incline Thine ear!
The enemy shouteth, the godless come fast!
Iniquity, hatred, upon me they cast!
The wicked oppress me; Ah! Where shall I fly?
Perplexed and bewildered; O God, hear my cry!
O God, hear my cry! O God, hear my cry!
Perplexed and bewildered; O God, hear my cry!
O God, hear my cry! O God, hear my cry!
The enemy shouteth, the godless come fast!
Perplexed and bewildered; O God, hear my cry!
O God, hear my cry! O God, hear my cry!
Perplexed and bewildered; O God, hear my cry!
O God, hear my cry! O God, hear my cry!
O God, hear my cry! O God, hear my cry!
My heart is sorely pained within my breast,
My soul with deathly terror is oppressed,
Trembling and fearfulness upon me fall,
With horror overwhelmed, Lord, hear me call!
With horror overwhelmed, Lord, hear me call!
O for the wings, for the wings of a dove!
Far away, far away would I rove!
O for the wings, for the wings of a dove!
Far away, far away,
Far away, far away would I rove!
In the wilderness build me a nest,
And remain there forever at rest.
In the wilderness build me, build me a nest,
And remain there forever at rest.
In the wilderness build me a nest,
And remain there forever at rest.
And remain there forever at rest.
And remain there forever at rest.
O for the wings, for the wings of a dove!
Far away, far away would I rove!
O for the wings, for the wings of a dove!
Far away, far away,
Far away, far away would I rove!
In the wilderness build me a nest,
And remain there forever at rest.
In the wilderness build me, build me a nest,
And remain there forever at rest.
In the wilderness build me a nest,
And remain there forever at rest.
Forever at rest, forever at rest.
And remain there forever at rest.
And remain there forever at rest.
