Forsaken (Psalm 22) Songtext
von Aaron Shust

O my God, my God
Why have You forsaken me?
My God, my God
Come quickly to my aid
Come quickly to my aid

O my God, I cried
I cried out by day
But You did not answer
O my God, I cried
I cried out by night
But there was no rest for me

My God, my God
Why have You forsaken me?
My God, my God
Come quickly to my aid


Our fathers trusted in You
They were never disappointed
′Cause You delivered
But I'm poured out like water
My bones are all disjointed
And all who see are mocking me

My God, my God
Why have You forsaken me?
My God, my God
Come quickly to my aid
Come quickly to my aid

A band of evil men
Has closed in on me
And pierced my hands and feet
Dogs are surrounding
Mockers are shouting
"If God delight in him, let Him deliver him"


Oh
לָמָה עֲזַבְתָּנִי אֵלִי
אֵלִי אֵלִי לָמָה עֲזַבְתָּנִי אֵלִי
Enthroned on the praises of Israel
You are holy still
Enthroned on the praises of Israel
You are
You are
You are

My God, my God
Why have You forsaken me?
My God, my God
Come quickly to my aid
Oh, come quickly to me aid
