Don’t Hide Your Face (Psalm 102)

Lyrics

Verse 1:
Oh Lord my God
Don’t hide your face
I am overwhelmed with sorrow
So please hear me when I pray

My heart is struck down
Withered like grass in the heat
I lie awake in bed
And I cannot sleep
But

Chorus:
You, You are on your throne
Help me to remember You
One day you will come
I know that You remember me
You hear and you remember me

Verse 2:
Ashes my food, tears are my drink
A fever burns deep in my bones
I’m forgetting to eat
Oh Lord, please look down!
Rise up! Have pity on me!
Oh let me praise you one day
For how you rescued me oh

Chorus

Turn

Bridge:
Oh my God
I know that you hear my groans
You will not leave me alone
You have said that You will come
When every tear you’ll wipe away
And everyone will fear your name
When all the earthly powers fade
You will still remain

Chorus
