Send Forth Your Light

Psalm 43

Vindicate me, O God,
and champion
    my cause against an ungodly nation.
From a deceitful and unjust man, deliver me!
For You are my God, my stronghold.
Why have You spurned me?
Why do I go about gloomy because of the oppression of the enemy?
Send forth Your light and Your truth—
let them guide me.
Let them bring me to Your holy mountain
    and to Your dwelling places.
