Consider Me Lyrics

How long, O Lord, shall I complain

Like one who seeks God in vain?

Why must You hide Your face?

O Lord, how long!

My foes surround

My fears confound

My tears, they drown me

Consider me and answer me, O Lord, my God

Lest I sleep the sleep of death and my life fade

Father, hear my spirit's plea

To answer me before my dying breath

Oh, do not delay

How long, O Lord, in this distress

Like one who seeks God for rest?

Why all is wilderness?

O Lord, how long!

My foes surround

My fears confound

My tears, they drown me

Consider me and answer me, O Lord, my God

Lest I sleep the sleep of death and my life fade

Father, hear my spirit's plea

To answer me before my dying breath

Oh, do not delay

To light up my eyes

Light up my eyes

Light up my eyes

Light up my eyes

Your mercy sounds

Your grace abounds

Your love surrounds me

Consider me and answer me, O Lord, my God

Lest I sleep the sleep of death and my life fade

Father, hear my spirit's plea

To answer me before my dying breath

Oh, do not delay

How long, O Lord, till night is day

And songs of grief turn to praise?

When will I see your face?

O Lord, how long!
