Let Me Live

May my cry come before you, Lord
Give me understanding according to your Word.
May my supplication come before you, Lord
Deliver according, according to your promise
And let me live.

May my lips overflow with praise
For You teach me, teach me your decrees.
May my tongue sing of your word,
For all of your commands
Are righteous, my Lord
And let me live.

Let me live, let me live that I may praise You
And may your laws sustain me,
I have strayed like a lost sheep.
Let me live.

May your hand be ready to help me.
O Lord, your precepts I have chosen.
I long for your salvation.
Lord, your law is my delight.
Let me live to praise You.
Let me live.

Let me live, let me live that I may praise You
And may your laws sustain me,
I have strayed like a lost sheep.
Let me live, let me live that I may praise You
And may your laws sustain me,
I have strayed like a lost sheep.
Let me live.

Seek you servant
I have surely not forgotten your command
O God, I know I love you
Seek you servant
I have surely not forgotten your command
O God, I know I love you, Lord

Let me live, let me live that I may praise You
And may your law sustain me,
I have strayed like a lost sheep.
Let me live.
