Psalm 88:12

A Cry Of Desperation

¹¹ Is your loyal love proclaimed in the grave, or your faithfulness in the place of the dead? ¹² Are your amazing deeds experienced in the dark region, or your deliverance in the land of oblivion? ¹³ As for me, I cry out to you, O Lord; in the morning my prayer confronts you.
