An Old Person's Prayer
1LORD, I have come to you for protection;
never let me be defeated!
2Because you are righteous, help me and rescue me.
Listen to me and save me!
3Be my secure shelter
and a strong fortress to protect me;
you are my refuge and defence.
4My God, rescue me from the wicked,
from the power of those who are cruel and evil.
5Sovereign LORD, I put my hope in you;
I have trusted in you since I was young.
6I have relied on you all my life;
you have protected me since the day I was born.
I will always praise you.
