In the Day of Trouble I Sought the Lord

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