2. I look for the Lord on the day of trouble.All night long I reach out my hands,but I cannot be comforted.
3. When I remember God, I become upset;when I think, I become afraid.Selah
4. You keep my eyes from closing.I am too upset to say anything.
5. I keep thinking about the old days,the years of long ago.
6. At night I remember my songs.I think and I ask myself:
7. “Will the Lord reject us forever?Will he never be kind to us again?
8. Is his love gone forever?Has he stopped speaking for all time?
9. Has God forgotten mercy?Is he too angry to pity us?”Selah
10. Then I say “This is what makes me sad:For years the power of God Most High was with us.”
11. I remember what the Lord did;I remember the miracles you did long ago.
12. I think about all the things you didand consider your deeds.
13. God, your ways are holy.No god is as great as our God.
14. You are the God who does miracles;you have shown people your power.
15. By your power you have saved your people,the descendants of Jacob and Joseph.Selah
16. God, the waters saw you;they saw you and became afraid;the deep waters shook with fear.
