How Long
Psalms · Bible Songs, Classical & Orchestral, Worship & Gospel
Will You keep on forgetting me, Lord?
Is this going to last for ever?
Why do You turn Your face away
And leave me counting my grief?
How long do I carry this arguing inside,
Sorrow sitting on me day after day?
How long does the one who stands against me
Get to hold the higher ground?
Look at me. Answer me.
Put the light back in my eyes
Before I fall asleep and never wake.
Still I have leaned on Your mercy;
My heart will be glad when You rescue me.
I am going to sing to the Lord,
Because He has been good to me beyond measure.
The asking turned into a song.
He has been good to me beyond measure.
