Hear my prayer, O Lord! and let my crying come unto thee!

Hide not thy face from me in the time of my trouble;—incline thine ear unto me when I call; O hear me, and that soon!

For my days are consumed away like smoke; and my bones are burnt up as it were a fire-brand!

My heart is smitten down, and with ered like grass-for the voice of my groaning my bones will scarce cleave to my flesh!

I have eaten ashes as it were bread; and mingled my drink with weeping! And that because of thine indignation and wrath; for thou hast cast me down!

Thou hast brought down my strength in my journey, and shortened my days; -my days are gone like a shadow!

But I said, O Lord; take me not away in the midst of mine age;-as for thy years, they endure throughout all generations!

In the depth of my trouble I have called on thee, O Lord!-Lord, hear my voice!

O let thine ears consider well the voice of my complaint!

If thou, Lord! wilt be extreme to mark what is done amiss, O Lord, who may abide it?

But there is mercy with thee; therefore shalt thou be feared!

My soul fleeth unto the Lord;-I look for the Lord;-my soul doth wait for him; in his word is my trust!

Hear my prayer, O God! and consider my desire;-hearken unto me for thy truth and righteousness sake.

And enter not into judgment with thy servant, O Lord!-for in thy sight shall no man living be justified!

My spirit is vexed within me;-and my heart within me is desolate!

Yet do I remember the time past; -I muse upon all thy works ;—yea,

I exercise myself in the works of thy hands.

I stretch forth my hands unto thee; my soul gaspeth unto thee as a thirsty land!

Hear me, O Lord! and that soon; for my spirit waxeth faint; hide not thy face from me, lest I be like unto them that go down to the pit !

O let me hear thy loving kindness betimes in the morning, for in thee is my trust!-show thou me the way that I should walk in, for I lift up my soul unto thee!

Teach me to do the thing that pleaseth thee, for thou art my God!

Quicken me, O Lord! for thy name's sake; and for thy righteousness sake bring my soul out of trouble!

PRAYERS

FOR

THOSE IN TROUBLE AND AFFLICTION.

Psalms iii. iv.

Hear me when I call, O God of my righteousness!—have mercy upon me, and hearken unto my prayer!

For thou, O Lord! art my defender; thou art my worship, and the lifter up of my head!

I did call upon the Lord with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill!

The Lord hath chosen to himself the man that is godly ;-call upon him faithfully and he will hear thee!

Stand in awe, and sin not ;-commune

with your own heart, and in your chamber; and be still!

Offer the sacrifice of righteousness, and put your trust in the Lord!

There be many that say, who will shew us any good?

Lord, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us!

I will lay me down in

peace, and take my rest! for it is thou, Lord! only that makest me to dwell in safety!

Psalm v.

Ponder my words, O Lord! and consider my meditation.

O hearken thou unto the voice of my calling, my King and my God! for unto thee will I make my prayer.

My voice shalt thou hear betimes, O Lord! early in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.

For thou art the God that hast no
