1 How much longer, Lord, will you forget about me? Will it be forever? How long will you hide?
2 How long must I be confused and miserable all day? How long will my enemies keep beating me down?
3 Please listen, Lord God, and answer my prayers. Make my eyes sparkle again, or else I will fall into the sleep of death.
4 My enemies will say, “Now we've won!” They will be greatly pleased when I am defeated.
5 I trust your love, and I feel like celebrating because you rescued me.
6 You have been good to me, Lord, and I will sing about you.
