How much longer will you forget me, Lord?
How much longer will you hide yourself from me?
How long must I endure trouble?
How long will sorrow fill my heart day and night?
How long will my enemies triumph over me?
Look at me, O Lord my God
Look at me, and answer me
Restore my strength; don’t let me die, don’t let me die
REF.: Refugees from Zion, We are refugees.
Don’t let my enemies say, “We have defeated him”.
Don’t let them gloat over my downfall.
I rely on your constant love;
I will be glad, because you will rescue me.
I will sing to you, O Lord,
Because you have been good to me.
Look at me, O Lord and answer me
Restore my strength; don’t let me die, don’t let me die
REF.: Refugees from Zion, We are refugees.
