“Is it for your sake we are slain?”
July 25, 2009
Psalm 44:22-27
It is for your sake that we are killed all night long?
That we are thought of by them as sheep to be feasted upon?
Awake! Why do you sleep O’ Lord?
Arise! Do not reject us forever!
Why do you hide your face
and ignore our distress and our cires?
We lie quivering in the dust,
our bodies cling to the ground, as if it can bring safety.
Arise and help us, redeem us, as our faith in you deserves.
