How long, Oh Lord, must I call for help?
Do you listen?
I cry to you "Please can you help me?!"
Do you hear?
Destruction and violence before me,
There's strife and conflict.
The law seems paralyzed, and justice perverted.
But, you say the righteous shall live by faith
So, I will rejoice in the Lord!
I'll be joyful in God, my Savior.
The Lord is my strength.
He makes my feet run.
Though the fig tree does not bud
No grapes on the vines
The crops are failing, the land's run dry.
But you say the righteous shall live by faith
So, I will rejoice in the Lord!
I'll be joyful in God, my Savior.
The Lord is my strength.
He makes my feet run like the feet of a deer
I will soar on the wings of eagles
Because of you, my God!
