Psalm 77:1-3
Contemporary English Version

(A psalm by Asaph for Jeduthun, the music leader.)

In Times of Trouble God Is with His People

1 I pray to you, Lord God,
    and I beg you to listen.
2 In days filled with trouble,
    I search for you.
And at night I tirelessly
lift my hands in prayer,
    refusing comfort.
3 When I think of you,
    I feel restless and weak.
