The Hebrew Psalms in English Verse
Psalm 54
Abraham Coles
Preserve me by Thy Name, O God!
Thy Name is my Strong Tower;
2 Defend me by Thy might against
The cruelty of Power.
3 For strangers have against me risen,
The violent have sought
To take away my life — they have
Of God nor fear nor thought.
4 God is my Helper, and He yet
My life upholds; and will
5 Return the evil of my foes
By killing them who kill.
6 I, with a free-will offering,
Will sacrifice to Thee;
7 Will praise Thy Name, for praise is good,
For Thou hast rescued me.
