At midnight

“But no one says, ‘Where is God my Maker,
Who gives songs in the night,

O my God, I cry by day, but You do not answer;
And by night, but I have no rest.

The Lord will command His lovingkindness in the daytime;
And His song will be with me in the night,
A prayer to the God of my life.

I will remember my song in the night;
I will meditate with my heart,
And my spirit ponders:

O Lord, I remember Your name in the night,
And keep Your law.

You will have songs as in the night when you keep the festival,
And gladness of heart as when one marches to the sound of the flute,
To go to the mountain of the Lord, to the Rock of Israel.
