Word

I cried out to God for help;
I cried out to God to hear me.
When I was in distress, I sought the Lord;
at night I stretched out untiring hands and my soul refused to be comforted.

I remembered you, O God, and I groaned;
I mused, and my spirit grew faint.

You kept my eyes from closing;
I was too troubled to speak.
I thought about the former days, the years of long ago;
I remembered my songs in the night.
My hear mused and my spirit inquired:

Will the Lord reject forever?
Will he never show his favor again?
Has his unfailing love vanished forever?
Has his promise failed for all time?
Has God forgotten to be merciful?
Has he in anger withheld his compassion?

Then I thought, "To this I will appeal: the years of the right hand of the Most High."

I will remember the deeds of the Lord;
yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago.
I will meditate on all your words and consider all you mighty deeds.

Your ways, O God are holy.
What god is so great as our God?
You are the God who performs miracles;
you display your power among the poeples.

With your mighty arm you reeemed your people,
the descendants of Jacod and Joseph.

The waters saw you, O God,
the waters saw you and writhed;
the very depths were convulsed.
The clouds poured down water,
the skies sesounded with thunder;
your arrows flashed back and forth.
your thunder was heard in the whirl wind,
your lightning lit up the world; the earth trembled and quaked.
your path led through the sea,
your way through the mighty waters, though your footprints were not seen.

You led your people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.

Psalm 77
The cry of my heart!! Sorry it's been so long!!
