Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

How long, oh Lord will You forget me?
How long, oh Lord, will You hide, hide Your face from me?
How long must I wrestle with me
And everyday have sorrow in my heart, sorrow in my heart?

I will wait on You, I will wait on You, I will wait on You

Look on me Lord and answer me
Give my eyes light or I will sleep in death, I will sleep in death
My enemies say, "I will overcome Him"
And my foes rejoice even when I fall, I don't want to fall

For I will trust in Your unfailing love
My heart rejoices in Your salvation, I will sing to the Lord
