Psalms 13 David, in his extreme sorrow, turns to God and trusts in Him

 Psalms 13

David, in his extreme sorrow, turns to God and trusts in Him

1 How long will you forget me, O Lord? Forever? How long will you hide your face from me?

2 How long must I take counsel with my soul, with sorrow in my heart all day long? How long will my enemy exalt himself over me?

3 Look upon me, and hear me, O Lord my God; lighten my eyes, lest I sleep in death;

4 Lest my enemy say, "I have prevailed against him," and my adversaries rejoice when I am shaken.

5 But I trust in your unfailing love; my heart will rejoice in your salvation.

6 I will sing to the Lord, for he has dealt bountifully with me.
