Set Me On High
My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?
Why are you so far from saving me, from the words of my groaning?
My God, my God, I cry by day and by night
There is no answer I find no rest
Deliver my soul from the sword, my precious life from the dogs
Save me, O God, for the waters have come to my neck
Deliver me, God, from blood guiltiness
Don't let me sink in the mire
Set me ablaze with your fire
And make yourself my desire
My God, my God, they seek me and they mock me
They have now pierced my own hands and feet
I can now count up all my bones, they stare and gloat over me
Save me, O God, for the waters have come to my neck
Deliver me, God, from blood guiltiness
Don't let me sink in the mire
Set me ablaze with your fire
And make yourself my desire
Let your salvation, O God, set me on high
Let these poor broken bones gladly rejoice
Let not the flood take me, keep me dry
Let us praise your great name, voice by voice
Save me, O God, for the waters have come to my neck
Deliver me, God, from blood guiltiness
Don't let me sink in the mire
Set me ablaze with your fire
And make yourself my desire
Why are you so far from saving me, from the words of my groaning?
My God, my God, I cry by day and by night
There is no answer I find no rest
Deliver my soul from the sword, my precious life from the dogs
Save me, O God, for the waters have come to my neck
Deliver me, God, from blood guiltiness
Don't let me sink in the mire
Set me ablaze with your fire
And make yourself my desire
My God, my God, they seek me and they mock me
They have now pierced my own hands and feet
I can now count up all my bones, they stare and gloat over me
Save me, O God, for the waters have come to my neck
Deliver me, God, from blood guiltiness
Don't let me sink in the mire
Set me ablaze with your fire
And make yourself my desire
Let your salvation, O God, set me on high
Let these poor broken bones gladly rejoice
Let not the flood take me, keep me dry
Let us praise your great name, voice by voice
Save me, O God, for the waters have come to my neck
Deliver me, God, from blood guiltiness
Don't let me sink in the mire
Set me ablaze with your fire
And make yourself my desire
