1
How long, Lord? Will you forget me forever?
How long will you hide your face from me?
2
How long must I wrestle with my thoughts
and 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.
