O MY GOD, WITHHOLD YOUR ANGER (PSALM 38) 

-7 8  10    9  -10   9   -9 8
 O my God, withhold Your anger,
-8  -7  7  -8   -7  8   -8
See the arrows piercing me!
-7  8    10    9  -10 9  -9
In Your wrath, my bo-dy fails,
8   -8   -7 7 -8 8
My guilt is agon-y. 

Chorus:
8 8  -8   -8 -7  -7  8   -7
O my God, do not forsake me,
-7 -7   8   -7  -9
Be not far from me.

Come quickly, O my God, and help me.
 8    8   9  8  -9
Lord, my Savior be! 
Verse 2:
My wounds fester and are loathsome.
I am bowed and brought down low.
I am filled with pain and mourning:
Anguish is my soul! 
(Chorus)
Verse 3:
All my longings are before You,
All my sighings in Your sight.
My heart pounds, my strength it fails,
My eyes have lost their light! 
(Chorus)
Verse 4:
I am now both deaf and mute:
To enemies I shan't reply.
For I know that You will answer:
On You I rely!
(Chorus)
Verse 5:
As my pain is ere before me,
I confess my sins to You.
Many are those who may hate
And mock the good I do!
(Chorus)
