I Waited Patiently for the LORD 1
2He brought me also out of an horrible pyt, out of the dirtie mire: and set my feete vpon a rocke, and directed my goynges.
3And he hath put a newe song in my mouth: euen a thankesgeuyng vnto our Lorde.
4Many shall see it, and feare: and shall put their trust in God.
5Blessed is the man that hath set his hope in God: and turned not vnto the proude, and to such as decline to lyes.
6O God my Lord, great are thy wonderous workes which thou hast done: & none can count in order thy benefites towarde vs, yf I woulde declare them and speake of them, they shoulde be mo then I am able to expresse.
7Thou wouldest haue no sacrifice or offeryng, but thou hast opened myne eares: thou hast not required burnt offerynges and sacrifice for sinne.
8Then sayde I, lo I am come: in the booke of thy lawe it is written of me that I shoulde fulfyll thy wyll O my God, I am content to do it, yea thy lawe is within the middest of my brest.
9I haue declared thy righteousnes in a great congregatio: lo I wil not refraine my lippes O God thou knowest
10I haue not hyd thy ryghteousnesse within my heart: my talkyng hath ben of thy trueth and of thy saluation.
