Leader: 1 I love the Lord, for he heard my voice;
he heard my cry for mercy.

I will call on him as long as I live.
Leader: 3 The cords of death entangled me,
the anguish of the grave came over me;
I was overcome by distress and sorrow.
ALL: 4 Then I called on the name of the Lord:
“Lord, save me!”
