1. I cry aloud to God;I cry aloud, and he hears me.
2. In times of trouble I pray to the Lord;all night long I lift my hands in prayer,but I cannot find comfort.
3. When I think of God, I sigh;when I meditate, I feel discouraged.
4. He keeps me awake all night;I am so worried that I cannot speak.
5. I think of days gone byand remember years of long ago.
6. I spend the night in deep thought;I meditate, and this is what I ask myself:
7. “Will the Lord always reject us?Will he never again be pleased with us?
8. Has he stopped loving us?Does his promise no longer stand?
