2 CPDV I cried out to you from the ends of the earth. When my heart was in anguish, you exalted me on a rock. You have led me, BSB BSB: From the ends of the earth I call out to You whenever my heart is faint. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
3 CPDV for you have been my hope, a tower of strength before the face of the enemy. BSB BSB: For You have been my refuge, a tower of strength against the enemy.
