1 Lord, how long must I wait? Will you forget me forever? How long will you turn your face away from me?
2 How long must I struggle with my thoughts? How long must my heart be sad day after day? How long will my enemies keep winning the battle over me?
3 Lord my God, look at me and answer me. Give me new life, or I will die.
4 Then my enemies will say, "We have beaten him." They will be filled with joy when I die.
5 But I trust in your faithful love. My heart is filled with joy because you will save me.
