How long, O Lord?

1
How long, O LORD? Will You forget me forever? How long will You hide Your face from me?
2
How long must I wrestle in my soul, with sorrow in my heart each day? How long will my enemy dominate me?
3
Consider me and respond, O LORD my God. Give light to my eyes, lest I sleep in death,
4
lest my enemy say, “I have overcome him,” and my foes rejoice when I fall.
5
But I have trusted in Your loving devotion; my heart will rejoice in Your salvation.
6
I will sing to the LORD, for He has been good to me.

How long, O Lord?

1
How long, LORD? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me?
2
How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart every day? How long shall my enemy triumph over me?
3
Behold, and answer me, LORD, my God. Give light to my eyes, lest I sleep in death;
4
lest my enemy say, “I have prevailed against him;” lest my adversaries rejoice when I fall.
5
But I trust in your loving kindness. My heart rejoices in your salvation.
6
I will sing to the LORD, because he has been good to me.
