Psalm 22, Pt. 2: Deliver My Soul (Post Punk Version)

Lyrics [Verse 1] Be not far from me, for distress is near; For there is none to help. Many bulls have surrounded me; Strong bulls of Bashan have encircled me. [Pre-Chorus] But You, O Yahweh, be not far off; O my Strength, hasten to my help. [Chorus] Deliver my soul from the sword, My only life from the power of the dog. Save me from the mouth of the lion; From the horns of the wild oxen You have answered me. [Verse 2] They open wide their mouth at me, As a lion that tears and roars. I am poured out like water, And all my bones are out of joint; My heart is like wax; It is melted within me. [Pre-Chorus] But You, O Yahweh, be not far off; O my Strength, hasten to my help. [Chorus] Deliver my soul from the sword, My only life from the power of the dog. Save me from the mouth of the lion; From the horns of the wild oxen You have answered me. [Verse 3] My strength is dried up like a potsherd, And my tongue cleaves to my jaws; And You lay me in the dust of death. [Bridge] For dogs have surrounded me; A band of evildoers has encompassed me; They pierced my hands and my feet. I count all my bones. They look, they stare at me; They divide my garments among them, And for my clothing they cast lots. [Pre-Chorus] But You, O Yahweh, be not far off; O my Strength, hasten to my help. [Chorus] Deliver my soul from the sword, My only life from the power of the dog. Save me from the mouth of the lion; From the horns of the wild oxen You have answered me.
