Hurry up, God

Hurry up, God, and deliver me. Hurry and help me, Lord. Let those after my soul be ashamed and let down. Let those who want me hurt be turned back and shamed. Let those who say, Aha, aha, be turned back because of their shame. Let everyone who seeks you rejoice and be glad in you. Let those who love your salvation keep saying: God be magnified. But I'm poor and needy. Hurry to me, God. You're my help and my deliverer. Lord, don't hold back.

Hurry up, God, and get me out. Hurry and help me, Lord. Let the ones after my soul be ashamed and let down. Let the ones who want me hurt be turned back and shamed. Let the ones who say, Ah, ah, be turned back as a reward for their shame. Let everyone who looks for you celebrate and be glad in you. Let the ones who love your salvation keep saying: God be made big. But I'm poor and needy. Hurry to me, God. You're my help and the one who gets me out. Lord, don't hold back.

MAKE HASTE, O GOD, TO DELIVER ME; MAKE HASTE TO HELP ME, O LORD. Let them be ashamed and confounded that seek after my soul: let them be turned backward, and put to confusion, that desire my hurt. Let them be turned back for a reward of their shame that say, Aha, aha. Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: and let such as love thy salvation say continually, Let God be magnified. But I am poor and needy: make haste unto me, O God: thou art my help and my deliverer; O LORD, make no tarrying.
