My soul is cast down within me; I am weary,
O God.
Nothing I tried today worked out. I could not prevail.
But suddenly I realize I have been acting
as if you are a
stranger to me, as if I do not know what
you have done.
Have I forgotten, in my desert place, the
mountains
and cool waters where I have found you in
the past?
Teach me to remember my experience of you
there;
and teach me to rejoice in you, even in
the desert.
