He sent from on high, he took me; He drew me out of many waters;
They meet with darkness in the day-time, And grope at noonday as in the night.
Terrors overtake him like waters; A tempest stealeth him away in the night.
As smoke is driven away, so drive them away: As wax melteth before the fire, So let the wicked perish at the presence of God.
Sing unto God, sing praises to his name: Cast up a highway for him that rideth through the deserts; His name is Jehovah; and exult ye before him.
Waters flowed over my head; I said, I am cut off.
For thou didst cast me into the depth, in the heart of the seas, And the flood was round about me; All thy waves and thy billows passed over me.
The waters compassed me about, even to the soul; The deep was round about me; The weeds were wrapped about my head.
