O Lord my God, I cried out to you and you healed me.

I am up before dawn crying for help. I find hope in your word.

They cry out, but there is no one to help them; they cry out to the Lord, but he does not answer them.

For he will rescue the needy when they cry out for help, and the oppressed who have no defender.

As for me, I cry out to you, O Lord; in the morning my prayer confronts you.

Hear my plea for mercy when I cry out to you for help, when I lift my hands toward your holy temple!

In my distress I called to the Lord; I cried out to my God. From his heavenly temple he heard my voice; he listened to my cry for help.

For he did not despise or detest the suffering of the oppressed; he did not ignore him; when he cried out to him, he responded.

I jumped to conclusions and said, “I am cut off from your presence!” But you heard my plea for mercy when I cried out to you for help.
