My Psalm of Lament

October 23rd, 2007

 

O Lord my God, when shall You come? Please anwer those who make my life hard. Have you forgotten your servant? Have I done something wrong? Answer those who seek to harm me and my family.

Have you forgotten your promise? Do you not wish to preserve your child? May it never be. I must be being punished, for what have I done wrong? Forgive me for my transgressions, make me a new man.

O Lord do not wait to rescue your servant, call him home soon. Do not let me suffer in my fleshly prison for long. You make my flesh to rest securely. You give me a place to rest and find solace. My soul finds favor in your courts.

Tomorrow is a new day, a day you forknew long ago. Make tomorrow a better day, help me rest secure in you.
