Psalm 43

Psalm 43

1 Declare me innocent, O God!
  Defend me against these ungodly people.
  Rescue me from these unjust liars.

2 For you are God, my only safe haven.
  Why have you tossed me aside?
Why must I wander around in grief,
  oppressed by my enemies?

3 Send out your light and your truth;
  let them guide me.
Let them lead me to your holy mountain,
  to the place where you live.

4 There I will go to the altar of God,
  to God—the source of all my joy.
I will praise you with my harp,
  O God, my God!

5 Why am I discouraged?
  Why is my heart so sad?
I will put my hope in God!
  I will praise him again—
  my Savior and my God!
