PSALM 43
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
1Judge me, O God, and plead my cause
against th' ungodly nation;
From the unjust and crafty man,
O be thou my salvation.
2For thou the God art of my strength;
why thrusts thou me thee fro'?
For th' enemy's oppression
why do I mourning go?
3O send thy light forth and thy truth;
let them be guides to me,
And bring me to thine holy hill,
ev'n where thy dwellings be.
4Then will I to God's altar go,
to God my chiefest joy:
Yea, God, my God, thy name to praise
my harp I will employ.
5Why art thou then cast down, my soul?
what should discourage thee?
And why with vexing thoughts art thou
disquieted in me?
Still trust in God; for him to praise
good cause I yet shall have:
He of my count'nance is the health,
my God that doth me save.

Send Out Your Light and Your Truth

Ps. 7:8; 26:1 Vindicate me, O God, and #See 1 Sam. 24:15 defend my cause
against an ungodly people,
from #Ps. 5:6the deceitful and unjust man
deliver me!
2For you are #Ps. 31:4 the God in whom I take refuge;
why have you #See Ps. 44:9 rejected me?
Why do I #Ps. 42:9go about mourning
because of the oppression of the enemy?
3 #
Ps. 40:11; 57:3 Send out your light and your truth;
let them lead me;
let them bring me to your #See Ps. 2:6; 46:4 holy hill
and to your #Ps. 84:1dwelling!
4Then I will go to the altar of God,
to God my exceeding joy,
and I will praise you with the lyre,
O God, my God.
5 # See Ps. 42:5 Why are you cast down, O my soul,
and why are you in turmoil within me?

Ps. 42:5, 11 Hope in God; for I shall again praise him,
my salvation and my God.
