🎶 Lyrics (Based on Psalm 77:1–20)

Verse 1 (Psalm 77:1–4)

I cried aloud to God Most High,

My voice broke through the silent sky.

In the night I stretched out hands,

But comfort fled like desert sands.

Chorus (Psalm 77:7–9)

Will You reject me evermore?

Have You closed mercy’s door?

Has Your promise come to end?

Where are You, O faithful Friend?

Verse 2 (Psalm 77:10–12)

But then I said, “I will recall,

Your mighty works, Your power to all.”

I’ll meditate on what You’ve done,

The wonders shining like the sun.

Bridge (Psalm 77:13–16)

O God, Your way is holiness,

No god is great like You, we confess.

You redeemed Your people strong,

With thunder, lightning, and victory’s song.

Final Chorus (Psalm 77:19–20)

Your way was through the mighty sea,

Yet hidden were Your steps to me.

Still You led, with shepherd’s rod,

By Moses’ hand — O faithful God.
