1
How long wilt thow forgett me Lord?For evir shall it bee?
How long wilt thow withdraw thy face,
And hyd thy selff from me?
2
How long take counsell in my souleShall I, whill daylie grow
My greevs of hart? How long insult
Sall ovir me my foe?
3
My sute let weght and hearing haue,O Lord my God, with thee;
Lest death's cold sleep seal vp my sight,
Mine eyes with light supplie;
4
Lest over him prevaild I have,By my proud foe be sayd,
And the opposers of my peace,
When I am mov'd be glade.
5
My trust is in thy mercie; stillShall thy salvation be
My joy of heart. To God I'le sing,
Who hath delt weell with me.
