1 How long, Lord? Will you forget me for ever?How long will you hide your face from me?
2 How long must I wrestle with my thoughtsand day after day have sorrow in my heart?How long will my enemy triumph over me?
3 Look on me and answer, Lord my God.Give light to my eyes, or I will sleep in death,
4 and my enemy will say, ‘I have overcome him,’and my foes will rejoice when I fall.
5 But I trust in your unfailing love;my heart rejoices in your salvation.
6 I will sing the Lord’s praise,for he has been good to me.
