HEAR ME, LORD, AND ANSWER ME (PSALM 86)

1. Hear me, Lord, and answer me.
Guard my life, as I trust in Thee.
Grant me grace, for to You I go.
Grant me joy, as I lift my soul.

I lift my prayer.
I lift my cares to You.
I trust in You —
For You, Lord, are forgiving and good,
and You, Lord, are abounding in love!

2. In my trials, I will call on Thee,
and my Lord, You will answer me.
All the nations will worship You:
praise Your name for the things You do.

There is no god
like unto You, My Lord!
No deeds compare —
For You, Lord do such wonderful things,
and You, Lord, alone are God!

3. Teach me, Lord: I will walk with You.
Teach me, Lord, that my heart be true.
I will praise You with all my soul;
lift Your name where-e'er I go.

Great is Your love.
Great is Your love for me —
that I am saved —
For You, Lord, are a merciful God,
and You, Lord, are so patient and kind!

4. Turn to me; grant me Thy reward.
Grant me strength, in my struggles, Lord.
Grant Your help that all may see
that my Lord: You are there for me —
there for me!
