| For a foe treds o'er me and strives | B |
| Mindfully that time and again | C |
| I be wearied by all adversity | D |
| - | |
| Cruelly he treds proud in his throng | E |
| Stifling me with cruelness undue | F |
| Never's the day I'm free of him | G |
| Nor is my night empty of grim fear | H |
| - | |
| Yet be it day be it night when | C |
| Pondrous fear doth oppress kind Father | I |
| Thou my Defender art my hope | J |
| And in each need to the end shall be | D |
| - | |
| Whilst I Lord being assured | K |
| In Thy promises neither blind | L |
| Human connivance nor fierce threat | M |
| Nor battle's dread would I fear | H |
| - | |
| Whatever I say they wrongly construe | F |
| To my each deed they give rebuke | N |
| Impious ones have turned all care | O |
| To rendering me most loatheful | P |
| - | |
| In temples by veiled treachery | D |
| Or open offence they conspire | I |
| To smite me my every path they mark | Q |
| No safety would they afford me | D |
| - | |
| And this Thou wouldst suffer just Lord | A |
| Evil ones are to rejoice in such doings | R |
| Wouldst Thou waiver bringing unrising | Q |
| Ruin to a Temple of such calumny | D |

| I know verily I know Lord eternal | P |
| That my every defeat Thou dost reckon | S |
| Tears from sad eyes Thou dost retain | T |
| And dread afflictions' cause Thou dost know | U |
| - | |
| Work of evildoers Thou turnst to naught | V |
| But to me a kindly ear dost lend | W |
| And brights signs of Thy benevolence | X |
| And constant love to me Thou dost reveal | P |
| - | |
| Whilst I Lord being assured | K |
| In Thy promises neither blind | L |
| Human connivance nor fierce threat | M |
| Nor battle's dread would I fear | H |
| - | |
| And ever to Thee fatherly guard | Y |
| Of my being fuli praise I'll offer | I |
| In fitting song unhindered I'll feign | T |
| Not giving free by thy grace my avowed | Z |
| - | |
| Sacrifice With Thine aid my feet | A2 |
| Shall stray not from Thy sacred path | B2 |
| For such time as my spirit's abode | C2 |
| In this frail body be O my Lord | A |
