Arise, O Lord!

O Lord, deliver my life; save me for the sake of Your steadfast love and mercy.

WHY DO You stand afar off, O Lord? Why do You hide Yourself,

veiling Your eyes in times of trouble distress and desperation

I am weary with my groaning; all night I soak my pillow with tears, I drench my couch with my weeping.

My eye grows dim because of grief;

Have mercy upon me and be gracious to me, O Lord

Arise, O Lord! O God, lift up Your hand; forget not the humble, patient and crushed

Be my refuge;

and a high tower for the oppressed,

a refuge and a stronghold in times of trouble high cost, destitution, and desperation

O Lord, You have heard the desire and the longing of the humble and oppressed;

You will prepare and strengthen and direct my heart, You will cause Your ear to hear.

For the needy shall not always be forgotten, and the expectation and hope of the meek and the poor shall not perish forever. They who know Your name, who have experience and acquaintance with Your mercy will lean on and confidently put their trust in You, for You, Lord, have not forsaken those who seek You.

My trust is in God. But can we say that we really trust Him in the midst of our circumstances or do we continue to stay perplexed?
