1I cry aloud to God, aloud to God, and he will hear me.
2In the day of my trouble I seek the Lord; in the night my hand is stretched out without wearying; my soul refuses to be comforted.
3When I remember God, I moan; when I meditate, my spirit faints. Selah
4You hold my eyelids open; I am so troubled that I cannot speak.
5I consider the days of old, the years long ago.
6I said, “Let me remember my song in the night; let me meditate in my heart.” Then my spirit made a diligent search:
7“Will the Lord spurn forever, and never again be favorable?
8Has his steadfast love forever ceased? Are his promises at an end for all time?
9Has God forgotten to be gracious? Has he in anger shut up his compassion?” Selah
10Then I said, “I will appeal to this, to the years of the right hand of the Most High.”
11I will remember the deeds of the LORD; yes, I will remember your wonders of old.
12I will ponder all your work, and meditate on your mighty deeds.
13Your way, O God, is holy. What god is great like our God?
14You are the God who works wonders; you have made known your might among the peoples.
15You with your arm redeemed your people, the children of Jacob and Joseph. Selah
16When the waters saw you, O God, when the waters saw you, they were afraid; indeed, the deep trembled.
17The clouds poured out water; the skies gave forth thunder; your arrows flashed on every side.
18The crash of your thunder was in the whirlwind; your lightnings lighted up the world; the earth trembled and shook.
19Your way was through the sea, your path through the great waters; yet your footprints were unseen.
20You led your people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
