KJV 1900King James Version

Bow down thine ear, O Lord, hear me:

For I am poor and needy.

Preserve my soul; for I am holy:

O thou my God, save thy servant that trusteth in thee.

Be merciful unto me, O Lord:

For I cry unto thee daily.

Rejoice the soul of thy servant:

For unto thee, O Lord, do I lift up my soul.

For thou, Lord, art good, and ready to forgive;

And plenteous in mercy unto all them that call upon thee.

Give ear, O Lord, unto my prayer;

And attend to the voice of my supplications.

In the day of my trouble I will call upon thee:

For thou wilt answer me.

Among the gods there is none like unto thee, O Lord;

Neither are there any works like unto thy works.

All nations whom thou hast made shall come

And worship before thee, O Lord;

And shall glorify thy name.

For thou art great, and doest wondrous things:

Thou art God alone.

Teach me thy way, O Lord; I will walk in thy truth:

Unite my heart to fear thy name.

I will praise thee, O Lord my God, with all my heart:

And I will glorify thy name for evermore.
