1. I cry out with my voice to God; with my voice to God, that he may hear me.
2. In the day I have trouble, I seek the Lord. At night my hand stretches out continually; my soul refuses to be comforted.
3. I remember God and I groan loudly; I meditate and my spirit grows faint.
4. You hold open my eyelids. I am troubled and cannot speak.
5. I think about the days from long ago, the years of ancient times.
6. I remember my song in the night. With my heart I meditate, and my spirit searches to understand.
