Sermon

Behind the Crown: How Long O Lord?

Speaker

Bobae Lee

Scripture

Psalm 13

¹ How long, Lord? Will you forget me forever?
   How long will you hide your face from me?
² How long must I wrestle with my thoughts
   and day after day have sorrow in my heart?
   How long will my enemy triumph over me?

³ Look on me and answer, Lord my God.
   Give light to my eyes, or I will sleep in death,
⁴ and my enemy will say, “I have overcome him,”
   and my foes will rejoice when I fall.

⁵ But I trust in your unfailing love;
   my heart rejoices in your salvation.
⁶ I will sing the Lord’s praise,
   for he has been good to me.
