(A psalm by David for the music leader. Use flutes.)

A Prayer for Help

1 Listen, Lord, as I pray!
    Pay attention when I groan.[a]
2 You are my King and my God.
Answer my cry for help
    because I pray to you.
3 Each morning you listen
    to my prayer,
as I bring my requests[b] to you
    and wait for your reply.
