Judge Me, God of My Salvation

(BLAENHAFREN. 8.7.8.7 D)
1.

Judge me, God of my salvation,
plead my cause, for thee I trust;
hear my earnest supplication,
save me from my foes unjust.

Refrain:
O my soul, why art thou grieving?
What disquiets and dismays?
Hope in God; his help receiving,
I shall yet my Savior praise.

2.

On thy strength alone relying,
why am I cast off by thee,
in my helpless sorrow sighing,
while the foe oppresses me?

Refrain:
O my soul, why art thou grieving?
What disquiets and dismays?
Hope in God; his help receiving,
I shall yet my Savior praise.

3.

Light and truth, my way attending,
send thou forth to be my guide,
till thy holy mount ascending,
I within thy house abide.

Refrain:
O my soul, why art thou grieving?
What disquiets and dismays?
Hope in God; his help receiving,
I shall yet my Savior praise.

4.

At thy sacred altar bending,
God, my God, my boundless joy,
harp and voice, in worship blending,
for thy praise will I employ.

Refrain:
O my soul, why art thou grieving?
What disquiets and dismays?
Hope in God; his help receiving,
I shall yet my Savior praise.
