PSALM 4
Response:
Lift up the light of your face on us, O Lord.
Verse 1:
When I call, answer me,
O God of justice;
from anguish you released me,
have mercy and hear me!
Verse 2:
It is the Lord who grants favours
to those whom he loves;
the Lord hears me
whenever I call him.
Verse 3:
‘What can bring us happiness?’ many say.
Lift up the light
of your face on us, O Lord.
Verse 4:
I will lie down in peace
and sleep comes at once,
for you alone, Lord,
make me dwell in safety.
