Regard My Woes

Verse 1

Regard my woes, relieve my pains. For still my mind Your law retains. Defend my cause, for You are true; My perils quell, my life renew.

Verse 2

Your health the wicked comes not nigh, For from Your statutes far they fly. But true You are, and large Thy store Of love, do You my life restore.

Verse 3

How fierce my foes! their crowd how great! Yet cease I not on Thee to wait. But who to keep Your statues fail, I see their folly, and bewail.

Verse 4

Mark how I love Thy law! impart Your grace, and still revive my heart! True from the first Your Word; and sure Thy judgments to the end endure.
