1 MY voice I will lift up to God, I'll cry to God nor spare; My voice I will lift up to God, And he will hear my prayer. 2 In day of woe I sought the Lord; By night in ceaseless grief My hand was stretched out to him; My soul refused relief.
3 I to remembrance God do call, And then I sigh and mourn; I with myself commune, my heart With grief is overborne. 4 Thou dost deny mine eyelids sleep, Withhold the rest I seek; My trouble is so great that I Unable am to speak.
5 I thought on days and years of old, Recalled my song by night; 6 I with my heart communed, my soul Made earnest search for light. 7 For ever will the Lord cast off, And gracious be no more? 8 For ever is his mercy gone? Fails his word evermore?
9 Is't so that to be gracious The Lord forgotten hath; And that his tender mercies he Hath shut up in his wrath? 10 Then said I, This my weakness is; But call to mind will I The years of the right hand of him Who is the Lord most high.
11 Yea, I remember will the works Performed by the Lord: The wonders done of old by thee I surely will record. 12 Upon thy doings I will muse, On thy works meditate; 13 Most holy is thy way, O God: What God like thee is great?
14 Thou art the God that wonders dost By thy fight hand most strong: Thy mighty power thou hast declared The nations all among. 15 To thine own people with thine arm Thou didst redemption bring; To Jacob's sons, and to the tribes Of Joseph that do spring.
16 The waters did thee see, O God, The waters did thee see; The depths thereof were troubled all, For fear aside did flee. 17 The clouds in water forth were poured, Sound loudly did the sky; And swiftly through the world abroad Thine arrows fierce did fly.
18 Thy thunder's voice along the heaven A mighty noise did make; Thy lightnings lighten did the world, Earth trembled and did shake. 19 Thy way is in the sea, and in The waters great thy path; Thy footsteps hidden are, O Lord; None knowledge thereof hath.
20 Thy people thou didst safely lead, Like to a flock of sheep; By Moses' hand and Aaron's thou Didst them conduct and keep.

BIBLE PASSAGE:
1 ¶ I cried unto God with my voice, even unto God with my voice; and he gave ear unto me. 2 In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord: my sore ran in the night, and ceased not: my soul refused to be comforted. 3 I remembered God, and was troubled: I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed. Selah. 4 Thou holdest mine eyes waking: I am so troubled that I cannot speak. 5 I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times. 6 I call to remembrance my song in the night: I commune with mine own heart: and my spirit made diligent search. 7 Will the Lord cast off for ever? and will he be favourable no more? 8 Is his mercy clean gone for ever? doth his promise fail for evermore? 9 Hath God forgotten to be gracious? hath he in anger shut up his tender mercies? Selah. 10 And I said, This is my infirmity: but I will remember the years of the right hand of the most High. 11 ¶ I will remember the works of the LORD: surely I will remember thy wonders of old. 12 I will meditate also of all thy work, and talk of thy doings. 13 Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary: who is so great a God as our God? 14 Thou art the God that doest wonders: thou hast declared thy strength among the people. 15 Thou hast with thine arm redeemed thy people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah. 16 The waters saw thee, O God, the waters saw thee; they were afraid: the depths also were troubled. 17 The clouds poured out water: the skies sent out a sound: thine arrows also went abroad. 18 The voice of thy thunder was in the heaven: the lightnings lightened the world: the earth trembled and shook. 19 Thy way is in the sea, and thy path in the great waters, and thy footsteps are not known. 20 Thou leddest thy people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
