I am laid low in the dust
 Preserve my life according to your word

 I recounted my ways and you answered me
 Teach me your decrees

 Let me understand the teaching of your precepts
 Then I will meditate on your wonders

 My soul is weary with sorrow
 Strengthen me according to your word

 Keep me from deceitful ways
 Be gracious to me through your law

 I have chosen the way of truth
 I have set my heart on your laws

 I hold fast to your statutes, O Lord
 Do not let me be put to shame

 I run in the path of your commands
 For you have set my heart free
