A Prayer for Help
1How much longer will you forget me, Lord? Forever?
How much longer will you hide yourself from me?
2How long must I endure trouble?
How long will sorrow fill my heart day and night?
How long will my enemies triumph over me?
3Look at me, O Lord my God, and answer me.
Restore my strength; don't let me die.
4Don't let my enemies say, “We have defeated him.”
Don't let them gloat over my downfall.
5I rely on your constant love;
I will be glad, because you will rescue me.
6I will sing to you, O Lord,
because you have been good to me.
