God does not forget his children: he has resurrected Christ.
1* 2How long, O Lord, will you forget me
and hide your face from me?
3How long must I suffer pain in my soul
and grief in my heart all the day long?
How long shall my enemy triumph over me?
4Look upon me and answer, O Lord my God! Give light to my eyes,
lest I sleep the sleep of death;
5lest my enemy say,
“I have routed him,”
lest my foes rejoice of my fall.
6But I put my trust in your unfailing love,
my heart will rejoice on seeing your salvation.
I will sing to the Lord,
for he has been good to me!
