Psalm 88:12

A Cry Of Desperation

¹¹ Will Your faithful love be declared in the grave,
Your faithfulness in Abaddon?
¹² Will Your wonders be known in the darkness
or Your righteousness in the land of oblivion? ¹³ But I call to You for help, Lord;
in the morning my prayer meets You.

crushing me to the ground,
making me live in darkness
like those long dead.
