Save me.
These floods of trouble have risen higher and higher.
The water is up to my neck.
I'm sinking into the mud with no place to stand and I'm about to drown in this storm.
I'm weary,
Exhausted with weeping.
My throat is dry.
My voice is gone.
My eyes are swollen with sorrow.
And I am waiting for any sign of help to come through for me.
And I keep calling out to you Yahweh.
I know you will bend down to listen to me.
For now is the season of favor.
Because of your faithful love for me,
Your answer to my prayer will be my sure salvation.
I know you will bend down to listen to me.
Pull me out of this mess.
Don't let me sink.
Rescue me.
Don't let me drown.
Don't let this flood drown me.
Save me from these deep waters.
I need to see your tender grace,
Your kindness,
Your compassion and your constant love.
Just let me see your face and turn your heart toward me.
Turn your heart toward me.
In this deep distress,
Come and answer my prayer.
Come closer as a friend and redeem me.
When your miracle rescue comes to me,
It will lift me to the highest place.
Then my song will be a burst of praise to you.
My glory shouts will make your fame even more glorious to all who hear my praises.
My glory shouts will make your fame even more glorious to all who hear my praises.
For I know,
Yahweh,
That my praises mean more to you than all my gifts and sacrifices.
My song means more to you than all my gifts and sacrifices.
All who seek you will see you do this for them and they'll overflow with gladness.
Let us revive our hearts.
Revive our hearts.
For you listen to the poor and the needy and will not abandon anyone.
Your heart goes out to the oppressed.
You will save the poor,
The powerless,
And the oppressed.
And we will all rejoice.
Let all the universe sing for joy and universal joy.
Let all the universe sing for joy,
The high heavens and everyone on earth.
Let the oceans deep with everything in them sing for joy.
Let us all rejoice.
Revive our hearts.
