Fading Light (Psalm 88) Lyrics

I cry to You in the still of the night

My soul pours forth its anguished plight

Shadows rise where the light once burned

To the depths of sorrow I've returned

Why have You hidden why am I lost?

Each step I take it bears a cost

Your silence deafens no solace found

I'm buried beneath this hollow ground

Forgotten forsaken left to the night

My prayers dissolve with the fading light

I am adrift in an endless sea

No friend remains to comfort me

Bound by chains unseen I fall

To the void where Your voice won't call

Why have You hidden why am I lost?

Each step I take it bears a cost

Your silence deafens no solace found

I'm buried beneath this hollow ground

Forgotten forsaken left to the night

My prayers dissolve with the fading light

From the womb to the grave my song is pain

A cry for mercy a plea in vain

Yet in the dark a spark may stay

A whisper of hope to light my way

Your silence deafens no solace found

I'm buried beneath this hollow ground

Forgotten forsaken left to the night

My prayers dissolve with the fading light
