My enemies have bound me up,They pierced my hands and feet.I can count my bones, my strength is gone,Come and set me free.

They take my clothing for themselves,They cast lots for my robe.God my strength, come to my help,Do not leave me alone.

I will speak your name to everyone.And sing you songs of praise.Everyone who loves our God,Praise God’s holy name!
