But As for Me. I'll Call On God-Psalm 55

1.'Twas not a foe who did deride, for that I could endure; No hater thus who
rose in pride, else would I hide secure. But thou it was my friend and guide;
we did as equals meet; We walked to God's house side by side, and counsel
blended sweet.

2.His speech more smooth than butter was, yet in his heart was war; More
soft than oil his words appear, yet sharp as drawn swords were they. But
Lord Thou will in judgment sit and bring them down to woe; And in the
deep and darksome pit, in ruin lay them low.

3.Death shall them seize, and to the tomb, alive they shall go down; For
wickedness is in their home; among them abound their sins. But as for me,
I'll call on God; the Lord will safety give: He'll hear me when I cry aloud,
at morning, noon and night.
