Psalms 77:1-9
1
Psalm 77
For the director of music. For Jeduthun. Of Asaph. A psalm.
I cried out to God for help;
I cried out to God to hear me.
2
When I was in distress, I sought the Lord;
at night I stretched out untiring hands
and my soul refused to be comforted.
3
I remembered you, O God, and I groaned;
I mused, and my spirit grew faint. Selah
4
You kept my eyes from closing;
I was too troubled to speak.
5
I thought about the former days,
the years of long ago;
6
I remembered my songs in the night.
My heart mused and my spirit inquired:
7
“Will the Lord reject forever?
Will he never show his favor again?
8
Has his unfailing love vanished forever?
Has his promise failed for all time?
9
Has God forgotten to be merciful?
Has he in anger withheld his compassion?” Selah
