Psalm (141) Analysis Paper Psalm 141 is a prayer seeking guidance and hope from the Lord. The speaker seems very worried‚ and begins the prayer with a desperate plea for the Lord to hear his voice. He does not ask for the Lord to do this though‚ he instructs him to; he demands it. “Make haste unto me…when I cry unto thee.” he says.
