Room 43

Vindicate me, my GOD,
and plead my cause
against an unfaithful nation.
Rescue me
from those who are
deceitful and wicked.
You are GOD
my stronghold.
Why have you rejected me?
Why must I go about mourning,
oppressed by the enemy?
Send me your light
and your faithful care,
let them lead me;
let them bring me
to your holy mountain,
to the place where you dwell.
Then I will go to the altar of GOD,
to GOD, my joy and my delight.
I will praise you with the lyre,
Oh GOD, my God.
Why, my soul, are you downcast?
Why so disturbed within me?
Put your hope in GOD,
for I will yet praise him,
my Savior and my GOD.
~ Psalm 43
