Sons of Korah - Psalm 40 (Song Of Redemption) lyrics

I waited patiently for the Lord
He turned and heard my cry
He lifted me from the mud and mire
He set my feet on a Rock

He put a new song within my mouth
A hymn of praise to our God
Many will see and they will fear
And put their trust in the Lord

Blessed is the man
Who trusts only in the Lord
Who does not look to the proud
To those who turn to their idols
So many, my Lord
Are the wonders that You have done
The things You plan for us
They're too many to declare
It was not sacrifice that You desired
But You have pierced my ears
Burnt offerings You did not require
It was not Your desire "Here I am", I said
"And I have come
For things are written of me
How I desire to do Your will
Your law is in my heart"

I will proclaim Your righteousness
In the assembly
I do not seal my lips as You know O Lord
I do not hide Your
Righteousness and Your salvation
Your love and truth I'll show
Within Your most holy assembly

Do not withhold Your mercy from me, O Lord
May Your love and truth always protect me
Though troubles without number surround me
My sins have overtaken me I cannot see
They are more than the hairs of my head
My heart fails within me

Be pleased O Lord to save me
Come quickly O Lord to my help
May all who seek to take my life
Be put to shame and confusion, O Lord
May all those who desire my ruin
Turn back in disgrace
Be appalled at their own shame

Then may all those who seek You
Be glad and rejoice in You
May those who love Your salvation say
"The Lord be exalted!"
Yet I am poor and needy
May the Lord think of me for You are my help
Lord, do not delay
