1. My God, my God why have you forsaken me? Why are you far from helping me, far from the words of my groaning?
2. O my God, I call by day and you do not answer, and by night but I have no rest.
3. Yet you are holy, enthroned on the praises of Israel.
4. Our ancestors trusted you; they trusted and you delivered them.
5. They cried to you and were saved; they trusted you and were not ashamed.
