"Bow down thine ear, O Lord, hear me; for I am poor and needy."
Psalms 86:1
Thine ear, O Lord, bow down to me,
and hear my plaints most earnestly.
I rise betimes to earn my bread
but poverty has been my stead.
My brow is dripping with salt sweat
yet all my days I am in debt.
Come swiftly to my aid, I plead,
thou only knowest all my need.
In thee I'll trust and lay my hand
in thine to reach the promised land!
