O Lord God of my salvation
I cry out to you by day
I come to you at night
Now hear my prayer, listen to my cry
For my life is full of troubles and death draws near
O Lord God of my salvation
I am as good as dead
And I lie like a corpse in a grave
I am forgotten, cut off from your care
You've thrown me into the lowest pit
Into the darkest depth.
Your anger weighs me down
With waves after waves you have engulfed me.
You've driven my friends away
By making me repulsive to them
I am in a trap with no way of escape
My eyes are blinded, by my tears
Each day I beg for your help
O Lord, I lift my hands to you for mercy.
Are your wonderful deeds
of any used to the dead
Do the dead rise up and praise you
Can those in the grave declare your unfailing love
Can they proclaim your faithfulness
In the place of destruction.
Can the darkness speak of your wonderful deeds
Can anyone in the land of forgetfulness talk about your righteousness.
