How Long – Music and Lyric by Steve Bell
Adapted from Psalm 13

How long
Have You forgotten me oh lord
How long
Hmmm….

Will you hide Your face from me
How long
Look on me
Answer my call
Oh Lord my God
I need some light before I fall

How long
Will I wrestle with my thoughts
How long
Hmmm…

Must I have sorrow in my heart
How long
Look on me
Answer my call
I cry every night
But You don’t seem to hear at all

Yet I’ll trust in Your love
Yes Your unfailing love
And I will sing out my days
That You’ve been good to me
Yes You’ve been good to me

How long
Have You forgotten me oh Lord
How long
Hmmm…

Will You hide Your face from me
How long
How long
