Psalm 13 | How Long, O LORD (MSAL)

Lyrics by Jody Killingsworth and Jake Mentzel
Music by Jody Killingsworth

How long, O LORD?
Will You hide Your face forever?
Will we talk no more together?
I strain my ear but hear my thoughts alone
How long, O LORD?

How long, O LORD?
Will my heart be drowned in sorrow?
If I lose more ground tomorrow
My foes will think that they have overcome
How long, O LORD?

How long, O LORD? For I have trusted You
Send Your love, don’t let it be untrue
I will sing for mercies I once knew
Return to me; how long, O LORD?

How long, O LORD?
I am fighting for survival
If my eyes don’t see revival
Then I will sleep the bitter sleep of death
How long, O LORD?

How long, O LORD? For I have trusted You
Send Your love, don’t let it be untrue
I will sing for mercies I once knew
Return to me; how long, O LORD?

How long, O LORD? For all my hope’s in You
Send Your love, don’t let it be untrue
I will sing; it’s what You said to do
Return to me; how long, O LORD?

When will it be?
How long, O LORD?
