Psalm 54

The Lord Upholds My Life

1 God, for your sake, help me! Use your influence to clear me.
Listen, God - I'm desperate.
Don't be too busy to hear me.

3 Outlaws are out to get me,
hit men are trying to kill me.
Nothing will stop them;
God means nothing to them.

4 Oh, look! God's right here helping!
God's on my side,
Evil is looping back on my enemies.
Don't let up! Finish them off!

6 I'm ready now to worship, so ready.
I thank you, God - you're so good.
You got me out of every scrape,
and I saw my enemies get it.
