1 I love the Lord, because my voice
and prayèrs he did hear.
2 I, while I live, will call on him,
who bowed to me his ear.
3 Of death the cords and sorrows did
about me compass round;
The pains of hell took hold on me,
I grief and trouble found.
4 Upon the name of God the Lord
then did I call, and say,
Deliver thou my soul, O Lord,
I do thee humbly pray.
5 God merciful and righteous is,
yea, gracious is our Lord.
6 God saves the meek: I was brought low,
he did me help afford.
Psalm 116 sung a capella by a free church choir from the scottish psalter of 1650.
