  • Friends, here is my music to Psalm 54. Enjoy.
    Psalm 54
    Save me, O God, by thy great name,
    and judge me by thy strength:
    My prayer hear, O God; give ear
    unto my words at length.
    For they that strangers are to me
    do up against me rise;
    Oppressors seek my soul, and God
    set not before their eyes.
    The Lord my God my helper is,
    lo, therefore I am bold:
    He taketh part with ev'ry one
    that doth my soul uphold.
    Unto mine enemies he shall
    mischief and ill repay:
    O for thy truth's sake cut them off,
    and sweep them clean away.
    I will a sacrifice to thee
    give with free willingness;
    Thy name, O Lord, because 'tis good,
    with praise I will confess.
    For he hath me delivered
    from all adversities;
    And his desire mine eye hath seen
    upon mine enemies.
    -Scottish Psalter of 1650
