This song is the end of a long journey for me. I have longed to see how we can incorporate more 'laments' in our modern worship experience for years, but writing a lament that congregations can sing together, seems to be much tougher than writing songs of joy!! In my opinion, there are so many reasons we need more laments in our corporate worship. The Psalms are full of them and Gods people have sung them for several millennia!! Today, real people need a safe place to express their pain and grief, and still know they are accepted and loved by God and His people! For the broken-hearted and those who are grieving, singing only 'happy songs' can leave them on the outside looking on. I have included this song to this project for allos us who are going through tough times, yet still we want to come and worship because there is no other place where we can find true comfort. Like the Psalms, our laments can honestly express our pain and our questions, and can still have an expression of hope as well. In Psalm 13, the word "but" looms large! Its maybe the hinge word of the Psalm and our song. This is who we are; this how we feel, but , in light of all that, I will still trust in You O God.


Psalm 13 (How long O Lord)

How long oh Lord will You forget me
How long oh Lord
Will You look the other way

How long oh Lord
Must I wrestle with my thoughts
And every day
Have such sorrow in my heart

Look on me and answer
Oh God my Father
Bring light to my darkness
Before they see me fall

But I trust in Your unfailing love
Yes my heart will rejoice
Still I sing of Your unfailing love
You have been good
You will be good to me
