Spirit of the Psalms
Psalm 43
Henry Francis Lyte
Judge me, O Lord, to Thee I fly,
New foes and fears my spirit try;
Plead Thou my cause, my soul sustain,
And let the wicked rage in vain.
2 The mourner's refuge, Lord, Thou art;
Wilt Thou not take Thy suppliant's part?
Wilt Thou desert, and lay me low,
The scorn of each insulting foe?
3 Send forth Thy light and truth once more;
To Thy blest house my steps restore:
Again Thy presence let me see,
And find my joy in praising Thee.
4 Arise, my soul, and praise Him now;
The Lord is good, be faithful thou:
His nature changes not like thine;
Believe, and soon His face will shine.
Henry Francis Lyte, 1834.
