Oh Sovereign Lord, my God, why have you forsaken me? I was once in green fields, beneath tall trees resting in their cool shade. Indeed I was once pastured beside deep pools of life giving water. Why oh Lord have you forsaken me? I roam listlessly through the barren desert. I am reduced to mere bones as I wander the meaningless wasteland. Have I not served you oh Sovereign Lord? Have I not executed your commands to the letter? I am but a deaf man in a lone room. Though I cry out to you oh sovereign Lord, you do not answer me. Indeed Lord I call out by day and by night and still you are silent Lord. when the armies of the enemy surround me, I cry out for you Lord. Yet thou are my vision lord, my best thought by day and by night. Awake or asleep thy presence is my light. As I walk through utter darkness thy light is a lamp to my feet. I know that you will deliver me from my enemies. All that wish to injure me will be vanquished by thy right hand like jars of clay dashed by an iron rod. Oh high king of heaven, my victory won, may I reach heaven, oh bright heavens sun. Heart of my own heart, whatever befall, still be my vision oh ruler of all.
