Psalm 13 (How Long?)

How long, o Lord, will You forget me?
How long will You hide your face from me?
How long will I search for answers in myself
With sadness in my heart everyday
How long will my enemies get the best of me?
Will You forget me forever?

Turn to me and answer me, o Lord, my God
Brighten up my eyes again so I can feel alive again
If You do not enlighten my eyes
Then I will sleep in death
And my enemies will gloat in victory and laugh at my demise

O Lord, don’t let my enemies win
Don’t let them dance on my grave
For I have trusted in Your mercy
And I will rejoice when You rescue me
I have trusted in Your unfailing love
And I’ll rejoice in Your salvation

And I will sing
I will sing
I will sing unto the Lord
For He has been so, so good to me
I will wait on You
Trust in the Lord, with all of your heart
And He will make Your pathway straight
