about

This is a lament.
It is based on Psalm 88.
Like Psalm 88 it is for believers to sing together.

lyrics

Verse 1:
All day and Night I cry for You
Allow my prayer before You
Incline Your ear to hear my plight
Lord turn Your gaze to me
See my weary hands like shadows
Touching death itself
I breathe the dust of misery
My soul has had its fill

Refrain:
Where is Your voice in this darkness?
Lord are You faithful to me?
Where is Your love that You promise?
You are the God who saves me

Verse 2:
You send me out, abandon me
To deep despair, forgotten
You drown my screams with ceaseless waves
And pin me down with wrath
Blind and chained with griefs and sorrows
Near my grave from youth
Oblivion I call my home
With shame to sooth my fears

Verse 3:
Will Your assaults and horrors heal?
Your praise swell while You slay me?
Shall I proclaim Your righteousness
If all I love are lost?
Lord, why turn Your back and shun me?
Where are You my God?
Your terrors strike and flood with doubt
And darkness is my friend
