F Psalm 43, Chant C

Chant C

 

Psalm 43   Judica me, Deus

1 Give judgment for me, O God, and defend my cause against an un-god-ly peo-ple; *
deliver me from the deceitful and the wic-ked.

2 For you are the God of my strength; why have you put me from you? *
and why do I go so heavily while the ene-my op-pres-ses me?

3 Send out your light and your truth, that they may lead me, *
and bring me to your holy hill and to your dwel-ling;

4 That I may go to the altar of God, to the God of my joy and glad-ness; *
and on the harp I will give thanks to you, O God my God.

Chant C

5 Why are you so full of heaviness, O my soul? *
and why are you so disquiet-ed with-in me?

6 Put your trust in God; *
for I will yet give thanks to her, who is the help of my countenance, and my God.

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Ho-ly Spir-it: *
as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ev-er. A-men.
