Psalm 40
I WAITED for the Lord my God,
And patiently did bear;
At length to me He did incline
My voice and cry to hear.
2
He took me from a fearful pit,
And from the miry clay,
And on a rock He set my feet,
Establishing my way.
3
He put a new song in my mouth,
Our God to magnify:
Many shall see it, and shall fear,
And on the Lord rely.
4
O blessed is the man whose trust
Upon the Lord relies;
Respecting not the proud, nor such
As turn aside to lies.
