My God, my God
Why have You forsaken me
Why are You so far from saving me
So far from my cries of anguish
Is this all just make-believe
My God, I'm leaving work to pray again
But You ain't saying things back
And neither at night, when I complain the day was "wack"
And can't stay in bed or stay on track
Yet the fact is You're enthroned as the Holy One
What a contrasting thought
May I not shun the One Israel praises, and is afraid of
Trusted by Abraham, Isaac and Jacob
You delivered them when they called on Your Name
They took the leap of faith and were not put to shame
But I'm a worm, not even a man
I'm scorned by everyone
And I think it's Your plan
All who see me, mock me
Hurl insults, shake their heads
"He trusts in the Lord," they said
"Let the Lord rescue him"
"Fam" and old friends shout
Because You're the one I'm happy about (come on)
Yet, You brought me out of the womb
From my mother's breast
Like I knew You rose from the tomb
From birth I was cast on You
From her womb You've been my God
Saved me from doom
Don't leave me God
Be Thou my "Viz"
Trouble is close and no other friend is
I'm surrounded by bulls
Strong bulls of Bashan encircle me
Roaring lions attacking with the fervency
Mouths open wide like the cook is serving meat
And serving me
Your Word I need
I'm poured out like water
Skeleton's out of joint
My heart's a candle hitting the melting point
My mouth is dry in the midst of the mocking
I'm too thirsty to speak
So I'm not even talking
You laid me in the dust of death
Dogs and villains surround me
Hound me and want my breath, yet
They pierce my hands and feet
All my bones are on display
People just stare and gloat over me
They think I'm a have-not, some garbage
They divide my clothes and cast lots for my garment
But You Lord, don't leave my vicinity
You're my Strength, come and help me quickly
Deliver me from the sword this hour, God
My precious life from the power of the dogs
It's going south and I'm dying
Save me from the horns of the oxen
The mouth of the lions
And I'll declare Your Name to Your servants
I'll praise You and we'll really have a church service
Said I'll declare Your Name to Your servants
And praise You
Because You're worth it
Because You're Worthy (yeah)
So when you're under attack, and the day is dim
All you who fear the Lord, praise Him
Descendants of Jacob, honor Him (He's worth it)
Descendants of Israel, fear Him (He's perfect)
He hasn't despised or scorned His Suffering Servant
He didn't hide His face, but He heard Him
You're the Reason I'm singing loud
When the saints meet together and we will fulfill our vows
The poor will eat and be satisfied
Those who chase Him will praise Him and abide
May your hearts live forever
All the ends of the earth
Will turn to the Lord and remember
Because the nations will bow down before Him
It won't matter about man's little opinions
The Lord rules over the nations
And to Him belongs the dominion
All the rich will feast and adore Him
Those in the dust will kneel down before Him
Those who can't keep themselves alive
Posterity will serve Him and our plans nosedive
All of life is unrolled by the Lord
Future generations will be told about the Lord
And preach His righteousness, that He won it
To a people unborn, that He's done it (yo)
All of life is unrolled by the Lord
Future generations will be told about the Lord
And preach His righteousness, that He won it
To a people unborn, that He's done it
He has done it
