Shadow of Thy Wings Lyrics

Hear, oh Lord, my plea,
Pay heed to my cry;
Listen to my prayer,
From lips without guile.

From you let my vindication come;
Your eyes see what is right.
You have tested my heart,
Searched it in the night.
You have tried me by fire,
But find no malice in me.

I call upon you; answer me, O God.
Turn your ear to me; hear my speech.
Show your wonderful mercy,
Delivering with your right arm
Those who seek refuge from their foes.

Ravenous enemies press upon me;
They fill their mouths with proud roaring.
Their steps even now encircle me;
They watch closely, keeping low to the ground.

Hide me in the shadow of your wings,
From the wicked who despoil me.

Rise, O Lord, confront and cast them down.
