A Prayer to the Lord

Remember, Lord, what happened to us [C a call to God for help and revenge].
    Look and see our ·disgrace [scorn].
Our ·land [L inheritance] has been turned over to strangers;
    our houses have been given to foreigners.
We are like orphans with no father;
    our mothers are like widows [C defenseless and vulnerable].
