The Lord has heard my voice

1
I love the Lord, because he hath heard my voyce and my prayers.
2
For he hath inclined his eare vnto me, whe I did call vpon him in my dayes.
3
When the snares of death copassed me, and the griefes of the graue caught me: when I founde trouble and sorowe.
4
Then I called vpon the Name of the Lord, saying, I beseech thee, O Lord, deliuer my soule.
5
The Lord is mercifull and righteous, and our God is full of compassion.
6
The Lord preserueth the simple: I was in miserie and he saued me.
7
Returne vnto thy rest, O my soule: for the Lord hath bene beneficiall vnto thee,
8
Because thou hast deliuered my soule from death, mine eyes from teares, and my feete from falling.
9
I shall walke before the Lord in the lande of the liuing.
10
I beleeued, therefore did I speake: for I was sore troubled.
11
I said in my feare, All men are lyers.
12
What shall I render vnto the Lord for all his benefites toward me?
13
I will take the cup of saluation, and call vpon the Name of the Lord.
14
I will pay my vowes vnto the Lord, euen nowe in the presence of all his people.
15
Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his Saintes.
16
Beholde, Lord: for I am thy seruant, I am thy seruant, and the sonne of thine handmaide: thou hast broken my bondes.
17
I will offer to thee a sacrifice of prayse, and will call vpon the Name of the Lord.
18
I will pay my vowes vnto the Lord, euen nowe in the presence of all his people,
19
In the courtes of ye Lords house, euen in the middes of thee, O Ierusalem. Praise ye the Lord.

The Lord has heard my voice

1
I love the LORD, because he listens to my voice, and my cries for mercy.
2
Because he has turned his ear to me, therefore I will call on him as long as I live.
3
The cords of death surrounded me, the pains of Sheol (a) got a hold of me. I found trouble and sorrow.
4
Then I called on the LORD’s name:LORD, I beg you, deliver my soul.”
5
The LORD is gracious and righteous. Yes, our God is merciful.
6
The LORD preserves the simple. I was brought low, and he saved me.
7
Return to your rest, my soul, for the LORD has dealt bountifully with you.
8
For you have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, and my feet from falling.
9
I will walk before the LORD in the land of the living.
10
I believed, therefore I said,I was greatly afflicted.”
11
I said in my haste,All people are liars.”
12
What will I give to the LORD for all his benefits toward me?
13
I will take the cup of salvation, and call on the LORD’s name.
14
I will pay my vows to the LORD, yes, in the presence of all his people.
15
Precious in the LORD’s sight is the death of his saints.
16
LORD, truly I am your servant. I am your servant, the son of your servant girl. You have freed me from my chains.
17
I will offer to you the sacrifice of thanksgiving, and will call on the LORD’s name.
18
I will pay my vows to the LORD, yes, in the presence of all his people,
19
in the courts of the LORD’s house, in the middle of you, Jerusalem. Praise the LORD!
