A Prayer to Uplift the Soul
[1] Vindicate me, my God,
and plead my cause
against an unfaithful nation.
Rescue me from those who are
deceitful and wicked.
[2] You are God my stronghold.
Why have you rejected me?
Why must I go about mourning,
oppressed by the enemy?
[3] Send me your light and your faithful care,
let them lead me;
let them bring me to your holy mountain,
to the place where you dwell.
[4] Then I will go to the altar of God,
to God, my joy and my delight.
I will praise you with the lyre,
O God, my God.
[5] Why, my soul, are you downcast?
Why so disturbed within me?
Put your hope in God,
for I will yet praise him,
my Savior and my God.

God's will. God bless.
