For those who currently wrestle with this question for themselves or others.
— How Long (Psalm 13), Lyrics —
O God, O God, How long
Will you forget me forever?
O God, O God, How long
will you hide your face from me?
How long must I take counsel in my soul
and have sorrow in my heart all the day?
How long shall my enemy be exalted over me?
O my God, How long
Consider me and answer me,
O Lord my God; light up my eyes,
lest I sleep the sleep of death
O God, O God, How long
Will you forget me forever?
Consider me and answer me,
O Lord my God; lest my enemy say,
“I have prevailed over him”
But I have trusted in your steadfast love;
my heart shall rejoice in your salvation
And I will sing to the Lord my God,
because he has dealt bountifully with me
But now, O God, How long
will you hide your face from me?
