lyrics

In my distress to God I cried,
And he gave ear to me.
From lying lips, and guileful tongue,
O Lord, my soul set free.

What shall be giv'n thee? or what shall
Be done to thee, false tongue?
Ev'n burning coals of juniper,
Sharp arrows of the strong.

Woe's me that I in Mesech am
A sojourner so long;
That I in tabernacles dwell
to Kedar that belong.

My soul with him that hateth peace
Hath long a dweller been.
I am for peace; but when I speak,
For battle they are keen.
