HELP, LORD, THE GODLY MAN CEASES!

With some alarm, the Psalmist prays to God;

He cries for urgent help from the LORD.

It seems that the godly are decreasing in number;

He pleads with the Lord to graciously remember!

 

The ungodly, on the other hand seem to be stronger;

They also seem to become even stronger.

They had a double heart and they used flattery;

But their behaviour is of doubtful sincerity.

The wicked believe in their power;

They believe in their own agenda.

They believe that their cause cannot fail.

The righteous are too weak to prevail.

 

But the godly has access to God in prayer;

Upon Him they will cast all their cares.

God will uphold Justice with all His Might;

The godly must continue to do what is right!
