1 How long will you forget me, LORD?
Will you forget always?
How long, LORD, will you hide your face
and turn from me your gaze?
2 How long shall griefs distress me
and turn my day to night?
How long shall foes oppress me
and triumph in their might?
3 O LORD my God, behold me,
and hear my earnest cries;
lest sleep of death enfold me,
shed light upon my eyes.
4 Then would my enemy declare,
“At last I brought him low!”
And so my foes would sing for joy
to see my overthrow.
5 But still I trust your steadfast love;
your saving pow’r I praise.
6 The LORD has richly dealt with me;
my songs to him I raise.
– v. 1 Sing Psalms; vv. 2-3 Psalter, 1912, alt.; vv. 4-6 Trinity Psalter Hymnal
