Copyright (c) Death Camp Parade Rich Keltner: Music Zeph Daniel: Added Percussion, Vocals Mixed and Mastered at Zedjah Studios, New Mexico Song Lyrics (Psalm 140 rearranged slightly) Save me Lord from evil doers Keep me safe from violent people They are always plotting evil Always dividing us in quarrels Their tongues are like deadly snakes Their words like a cobra’s poison Protect me from the power of the wicked Keep me safe from violent people Who plot my downfall The Mad have set a trap for me They have laid their snares And along the path they have set traps to catch me Selah I say to the Lord you are my God! Here my cry for help. Save me Lord from evil doers Keep me safe from violent people. My Sovereign Lord, my Strong Defender You protected me in battle Lord, don’t give the wicked what they want Don’t let their plot succeed. Don’t let my enemies be victorious Make their threats against me fall back on them. May hot coals fall on them May they be thrown into a pit and never get out May those who accuse other falsely not succeed May evil overtake violent people and destroy them Lord, I know you defend the cause of the poor And the rights of the needy The righteous will praise you indeed They will live in your presence Save me Lord from evil doers Keep me safe from violent people
