Robbie Seay Band - Psalms, Vol. 1
Psalm 42
1
As a deer pants for flowing streams
so pants my soul for you
O God.
2
My soul thirsts for God
for the living God.
When shall I come and appear before God?
3
My tears have been my food
day and night
while they say to me all the day long
“Where is your God?”
4
These things I remember
as I pour out my soul:
how I would go with the throng
and lead them in procession to the house of God
with glad shouts and songs of praise
a multitude keeping festival.
5
Why are you cast down
O my soul
and why are you in turmoil within me?
Hope in God; for I shall again praise him
my salvation and my God.
6
My soul is cast down within me;
therefore I remember you
from the land of Jordan and of Hermon
from Mount Mizar.
7
Deep calls to deep
at the roar of your waterfalls;
all your breakers and your waves
have gone over me.
8
By day the Lord commands his steadfast love
and at night his song is with me
a prayer to the God of my life.
9
I say to God
my rock:
“Why have you forgotten me?
Why do I go mourning
because of the oppression of the enemy?”
10
As with a deadly wound in my bones
my adversaries taunt me
