Psalms 77:1

My cry goes to God! Indeed, I cry to God for help, and for him to listen to me.

In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord. My hand was stretched out in the night, and didn't get tired. My soul refused to be comforted.

You hold my eyelids open. I am so troubled that I can't speak.

Psalms 77:5

I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times.

I remember my song in the night. I consider in my own heart; my spirit diligently inquires:

Psalms 77:7

"Will the Lord reject us forever? Will he be favorable no more?

Psalms 77:8

Has his loving kindness vanished forever? Does his promise fail for generations?

Psalms 77:9

Has God forgotten to be gracious? Has he, in anger, withheld his compassion?" Selah.

The waters saw you, God. The waters saw you, and they writhed. The depths also convulsed.

The clouds poured out water. The skies resounded with thunder. Your arrows also flashed around.

The voice of your thunder was in the whirlwind. The lightnings lit up the world. The earth trembled and shook.

Your way was through the sea; your paths through the great waters. Your footsteps were not known.

You led your people like a flock, by the hand of Moses and Aaron. A contemplation by Asaph.
