A psalm like pieceA Poem by JeremiaA Psalm like writing, written in a time a time where Jeremia was struggling to maintain hope and happiness. In a time of one of the greatest trials Jeremia ever faced.I’m crushed to the core My spirit is weakened I cry out, but hear no reply
Oh Lord, when will you hear me When will you answer my cry for help When will you defend your child
Abba, my heart cries Hear me and rescue me Lift me out of this dark pit
I cry by night, I cry by morning All day my heart burns At night I toss and turn, unable to rest
I awake in agony and panic Gripped tightly by dread Unable to move
How long will you remain angry How long will your wrath stay upon me How long will you remain silent
I ask for mercy, hear no reply I ask for deliverance, again nothing I ask for action, yet see no movement
Oh Lord, I continue to cry out to you Begging for deliverance Waiting for you to act on my behalf
My King, I’m terrified My heart is heavy And my stomach is in knots
You are the great judge Declare me innocent oh Lord Vindicate me I plea
Rescue me from the jaws of my enemies Lift me out of their grip Deliver me safely from their oppression © 2014 Jeremia |
