How long, O Lord? Will you forget me forever?
Psalms
1 David complains of delay, 3 He prays for preventing grace, 5 He boasts of divine mercy
Deu 31:17;Job 13:24;Psa 22:1 To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David. How long wilt thou forget me, O Lord? for ever? how long wilt thou hide thy face from me?
2 How long shall I take counsel in my soul, having sorrow in my heart daily? how long shall mine enemy be exalted over me?
Eph 5:14;Jer 51:39;Isa 37:36 3 Consider and hear me, O Lord my God: lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death;
4 Lest mine enemy say, I have prevailed against him; and those that trouble me rejoice when I am moved.
2 Chr 20:125 But I have trusted in thy mercy; my heart shall rejoice in thy salvation.
6 I will sing unto the Lord, because he hath dealt bountifully with me.
