English text
- Lord heare my prayer instantly,
- which I before thee make,
- and let my crye come unto thee,
- do not the same forsake.
- Turne not away thy face from me
- when troubles me opresse,
- each day inclyne thine eare to me
- and succour my distresse.
- Anonymous metrical translation of Psalm 102: 1-2
