Songtext von Lest I Sleep

How long, oh, Lord? Will You forget me forever? How long will You hide Your face from me? How long must I take counsel in my soul And have sorrow in my heart all the day? How long shall my enemy be exalted over me? Consider and answer me, oh, Lord, my God Light up my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death Light up my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death Lest my enemy say: I have prevailed over him Lest my foes rejoice because I am shaken Lest my enemy say: I have prevailed over him Lest my foes rejoice because I am shaken But I have trusted in Your steadfast love My heart shall rejoice in Your salvation I will sing to the Lord, I will sing to the Lord I will sing to the Lord, I will sing to the Lord I will sing to the Lord, I will sing to the Lord I will sing to the Lordbecause He has dealt bountifully with me
