DEEP CALLS TO DEEP

PSALM 42: 7-11

Deep calleth unto deep

at the noise of thy waterspouts:

all thy waves and thy billows

are gone over me.
Yet the LORD will command

his lovingkindness in the daytime,

and in the night his song shall be with me,

and my prayer unto the God of my life.
I will say unto God my rock,

Why hast thou forgotten me?

why go I mourning because

of the oppression of the enemy?
As with a sword in my bones,

mine enemies reproach me;

while they say daily unto me,

Where is thy God?
Why art thou cast down, O my soul?

and why art thou disquieted within me?

hope thou in God:

for I shall yet praise him,

who is the health of my countenance,

and my God.
