I said I will guard my ways To keep from sinning with my tongue With a muzzle I will guard my mouth While the wicked linger near I was mute and silent I held my peace to no avail And my distress grew worse and worse My heart became so hot within And as I mused the fire burned And then I spoke with my tongue O Lord show me my life’s end And the number of my days Show me how fleeting my existence is You’ve made my life just inches long It’s nothing before You Oh at best man is just a breath Surely man is nothing more Than a shadow whose work disappears He heaps up wealth and doesn’t know Who will have it in the end And now O Lord for what am I living All of my hope is in You That you’ll save me from all my sins Do not let me be mocked the fool I’m mute I don’t open my mouth For You’ve done this to me O Lord show me my life’s end And the number of my days Show me how fleeting my existence is You’ve made my life just inches long It’s nothing before You Oh at best man is just a breath All my hope all my hope All my hope is in You All my hope all my hope All my hope is in You Remove this punishment I’m consumed by the anger You pour out When You scourge a man for sin You remove like a moth what is dear to him Surely man is a breath All mankind is a breath Hear my prayer O Lord And listen to me Do not be silent as I weep and cry out O Lord show me my life’s end And the number of my days Show me how fleeting my existence is You’ve made my life just inches long It’s nothing before You Oh at best I am just a breath All my hope all my hope All my hope is in You All my hope all my hope All my hope is in You For I’m a sojourner with You Like my fathers I’m just passing through Look away from me so I can smile Before I leave and am no more Look away so I can smile again Before I leave and am no more
