Psalm 28 | Carry Me (MSAL)

Lyrics by Jake Mentzel
Music by Jody Killingsworth

To You, O LORD, I lift my voice
My Rock, oh, be not deaf to me
But hear my cries and calls for help
Your silence is as death to me

I lift my hands up with my voice
And bring to You this urgent plea
Don’t drag me off with wicked men
But like a shepherd carry me

To all the men who speak false peace
Who plot against their nearest friend
And all those who forget their God
Oh, bring them to a bitter end

And all who lift their fists to God
Who having eyes refuse to see
Yes, give to them their due reward
But like a shepherd carry me

Now bless the LORD, my shield, my strength
Who hearkens to the mourner’s voice
In Him my soul will ever trust
In Him my heart will now rejoice

I lift my song up to His throne
For He has never lost His own
But seeks me out though far I flee
And like a shepherd carries me

I lift my song up to His throne
For He has never lost His own
But seeks me out though far I flee
And like a shepherd carries me

My God, my Shepherd, carries me
