Psalms 77:1-9

1 1My voice rises to God, and I will 2cry aloud; My voice rises to God, and He will hear me.2In the 3day of my trouble I sought the Lord; 4In the night my 5hand was stretched out 6without weariness; My soul 7refused to be comforted.3When I remember God, then I am 8disturbed; When I 9sigh, then 10my spirit grows faint. 11Selah.4You have held my eyelids open; I am so troubled that I 12cannot speak.5I have considered the 13days of old, The years of long ago.6I will remember my 14song in the night; I 15will meditate with my heart, And my spirit 16ponders:

7Will the Lord 17reject forever? And will He 18never be favorable again?8Has His 19lovingkindness ceased forever? Has His 20 21promise come to an end 22forever?9Has God 23forgotten to be gracious, Or has He in anger 24withdrawn His 25compassion? Selah.
