We Cry Out (Psalm 142)

A prayer-song for loneliness and lostness.

 

                                                                                               

 

 

 

 

 

​

 

Refrain:

We cry out You hear our prayer
We cry out We know you hear We cry out…

Verse 1:

For mercy, for I am all alone,
So hear me, I will not be ignored.
When my spirit is fainting, answer me now

Answer me now.

Verse 2:

For good land to build on, live and thrive,
So guide me to find a place that's mine.
When my spirit is exiled, you bring me home

You bring me home.

Verse 3:

For help now! My life's in dire straits
So answer! before it gets too late.
When my spirit is dry dust, you love my life

You love my life.
