You are God my stronghold.
    Why have you rejected(A) me?
Why must I go about mourning,(B)
    oppressed by the enemy?(C)
Send me your light(D) and your faithful care,(E)
    let them lead me;(F)
let them bring me to your holy mountain,(G)
    to the place where you dwell.(H)
Then I will go(I) to the altar(J) of God,
    to God, my joy(K) and my delight.(L)
I will praise you with the lyre,(M)
    O God, my God.

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.(N)

O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me; let them bring me unto thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles.

Then will I go unto the altar of God, unto God my exceeding joy: yea, upon the harp will I praise thee, O God my God.

Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God.
