1Gehyr, halig God, hraþe mine bene,
beheald mine gebed holde mode;
2nu ic of eorðan utgemærum
cleopige to þe, nu me caru beateð
heard æt heortan, help min nu þa;
3ahefe me holdlice on halne stan.
Þu me gelæddest mid lufan hyhte,
wære me se stranga tor stið wið feondum.
4Ic eardige awa to feore
on ðinum selegesceote; þær me softe byð,
þær ic beo fægere beþeaht fiðerum ðinum.
5Forðon ðu gehyrdest, halig Drihten,
hu min gebed to ðe beorhte eode;
yrfe þu sealdest anra gehwylcum,
se þe naman ðinne þurh neod forhtað.
6Dæg byð ofer dæge, þær byð gedefe cynincg;
beoð his winter eac wynnum iced,
oð þone dæg þe he on Drihtnes sceal
on ansyne andweard gangan,
7and þær to worlde wunian ece.
Hwylc seceð þæt þe soðfæst byð?
8swa ic naman ðinum neode singe,
þæt ic min gehat her agylde
of dæge on dæg, swa hit gedefe wese.
