Psalm 42

O Lord, I Long for You

O Lord, I long for you.

You’re present in your Word

E’er shall I find it true

You’re present in your Word.

REFRAIN:

Halleluia!   Praise the Lord!

He is our Help.  He is our Lord.

God’s Word now says to you

“Take courage, my dear child.”

Hear this each day anew.

“Take courage, my dear child.”  REFRAIN

Whene’er you feel depressed

God is your solid Rock.

All fears he will arrest

God is your solid Rock.     REFRAIN

Whene’er you are cast down

Put all your hope in God.

His love removes your frown.

Put all your hope in God.  REFRAIN

When you are discouraged

Expect the Lord to act.

All worries he’ll assuage

Expect the Lord to act.    REFRAIN

Lift up your heart to Him

His words are ever true.

When others scoff at them,

          His words are ever true.    REFRAIN
