[lyrics by Kyle Wood]
Save me, O God, for the water have come up to my neck.
I sink in the miry depths, where there is no foothold.
I have come into the deep waters; the floods engulf me.
Fear and trembling have beset me, horror has overwhelmed me.
I am worn out calling for help, my throat is parched.
My heart is in anguish with me; the terrors of death assail me.
Many are my enemies without cause; those who seek to destroy me.
They sharpen their tongues like swords, and aim their words like deadly arrows.
When they draw the bow, let their arrows be blunted.
O Lord, how many are my foes!
But You are a shield around me, O Lord; You bestow glory on me.
I cry aloud, and He answers me.
I will not fear the tens of thousands drawn up against me.
