1. My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?Why are you so far away when I groan for help?
2. Every day I call to you, my God, but you do not answer.Every night I lift my voice, but I find no relief.
3. Yet you are holy,enthroned on the praises of Israel.
4. Our ancestors trusted in you,and you rescued them.
5. They cried out to you and were saved.They trusted in you and were never disgraced.
