1 Alleluia. I have loved: therefore, the Lord will heed the voice of my prayer. 2 For he has inclined his ear to me. And in my days, I will call upon him. 3 The sorrows of death have surrounded me, and the perils of Hell have found me. I have found tribulation and sorrow. 4 And so, I called upon the name of the Lord. O Lord, free my soul. 5 Merciful is the Lord, and just. And our God is compassionate. 6 The Lord is the keeper of little ones. I was humbled, and he freed me. 7 Turn again, my soul, to your rest. For the Lord has done good to you. 8 For he has rescued my soul from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from slipping. 9 I will please the Lord in the land of the living.
