1. Psalm 7 Psalms for All Seasons Copyright 2012 Words: Norman J. Goreham Sung to: ST. BEES “Take My Life and Let it Be” CCLI #977558 1

2. Plaintive is the song I sing, Woeful the lament I bring; All my anguish I lay bare: God, my Savior, hear my prayer. 2

3. My pursuers take delight In their malice and their spite. They accuse me without cause Held as in a lion's claws. 3

4. Try me, put me to the test: If I ever have oppressed Those who taunt me and deride, Then they might be justified. 4

5. Seated on Your lofty throne, Summon all the lands, each one; Hold high court, lay motives bare, Give just judgment, firm but fair. 5

6. Leading to a different way, Where revenge no more holds sway, And where Christ will set us free, Free to build community. 6
