VERSE 1
O my God I cried,
I cried out by day
But You did not answer
O my God I cried
I cried out by night
But there was no rest for me
VERSE 2
Our fathers trusted in You
They were never disappointed You delivered
But I?m poured out like water
My bones are all disjointed
And all who see are mocking me
VERSE 3
A band of evil men has closed in on me
And pierced my hands and feet
Dogs are surrounding, mockers are shouting
?If God delight in him, let Him deliver him!?

Enthroned on the praises of Israel You are holy still
Enthroned on the praises of Israel You are

CHORUS
my God my God
Why have You forsaken me?
O My God my God
Come quickly to my aid
Come quickly to my aid
And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?
My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? `Why art thou so' far from helping me, `and from' the words of my groaning?
O my God, I cry in the daytime, but thou answerest not; And in the night season, and am not silent.
But thou art holy, O thou that inhabitest the praises of Israel.
