Psalm 42:3-5
Evangelical Heritage Version
Psalm 42:3-5
Evangelical Heritage Version
3 My tears have been food for me day and night,
while people are saying to me all day,
“Where is your God?”
4 I am overcome by my emotions
whenever I remember these things:
how I used to arrive with the crowd,
as I led the procession to the house of God,
with loud shouts of thanksgiving,
with the crowd celebrating the festival.
Refrain
5 Why are you so depressed,[a] O my soul?
Why so disturbed within me?
Hope in God, for I will again praise him
for salvation from his presence.[b]
