Lord from Sorrows Deep I Call

Lord from Sorrows Deep I Call

Matt Boswell | Matt Papa

Psalm 42 – a lament

Verse 1
Lord, from sorrows deep I call
When my hope is shaken
Torn and ruined from the fall
Hear my desperation

For so long I’ve pled and prayed
God, come to my rescue
Even so the thorn remains
Still my heart will praise You

Verse 2
Storms within my troubled soul
Questions without answers
On my faith these billows roll
God, be now my shelter

Why are you cast down, my soul?
Hope in Him who saves you
When the fires have all grown cold
Cause this heart to praise You (oh, my soul)

Chorus
And oh, my soul, put your hope in God
My help, my rock, I will praise Him
Sing, oh, sing through the raging storm
You’re still my God, my salvation

Verse 3
Should my life be torn from me
Every worldly pleasure
When all I possess is grief
God, be then my treasure

Be my vision in the night
Be my hope and refuge
‘Til my faith is turned to sight
Lord, my heart will praise You

Chorus (2x)
And oh, my soul, put your hope in God
My help, my rock, I will praise Him
Sing, oh, sing through the raging storm
You’re still my God, my salvation
