## In My Distress I Sought the Lord
|
|
|
|
###### 1
|
|
My voice _rises_ to God, and I must cry aloud; My voice _rises_ to God, and He will hear me.
|
|
|
|
###### 2
|
|
In the day of my distress I sought the Lord; In the night my hand was stretched out without weariness; My soul refused to be comforted.
|
|
|
|
###### 3
|
|
I remember God and I am disturbed; I muse and my spirit faints. Selah.
|
|
|
|
###### 4
|
|
You have held my eyelids _open_; I am so troubled that I cannot speak.
|
|
|
|
###### 5
|
|
I give thought to the days of old, The years of long ago.
|
|
|
|
###### 6
|
|
I remember my music in the night; I am musing with my heart, And my spirit is searching:
|
|
|
|
###### 7
|
|
Will the Lord reject evermore? And will He not be favorable again?
|
|
|
|
###### 8
|
|
Has His lovingkindness ceased forever? Has _His_ word ended from generation to generation?
|
|
|
|
###### 9
|
|
Has God forgotten to be gracious, Or has He in anger shut up His compassion? Selah.
|
|
|
|
###### 10
|
|
Then I said, "It is my grief, That the right hand of the Most High has changed."
|
|
|
|
###### 11
|
|
I shall remember the deeds of Yah; Surely I will remember Your wonders of old.
|
|
|
|
###### 12
|
|
I will meditate on all Your work And muse on Your deeds.
|
|
|
|
###### 13
|
|
O God, Your way is holy; What god is great like God?
|
|
|
|
###### 14
|
|
You are the God who works wonders; You have made known Your strength among the peoples.
|
|
|
|
###### 15
|
|
You have by _Your_ arm redeemed Your people, The sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah.
|
|
|
|
###### 16
|
|
The waters saw You, O God; The waters saw You, they were in anguish; The deeps also trembled.
|
|
|
|
###### 17
|
|
The clouds poured out water; The skies gave forth a sound; Your arrows went here and there.
|
|
|
|
###### 18
|
|
The sound of Your thunder was in the whirlwind; The lightnings lit up the world; The earth trembled and shook.
|
|
|
|
###### 19
|
|
Your way was in the sea And Your paths in the mighty waters, But Your footprints were not known.
|
|
|
|
###### 20

You led Your people like a flock By the hand of Moses and Aaron.
