Lyrics:
VERSE 1
O Lord, our God, to You we come
Will You still hide Your face?
We cry before You and on our knees we pray
How long, O Lord, how long?
VERSE 2
Our sorrows leave us weak and worn
Surrounded by our fears
We look to heaven through feeble faith and tears
How long, O Lord, how long?
CHORUS
Till Your glory fills our eyes
And our faith is turned to sight
Till our thirsty souls are satisfied
How long, O Lord, how long?
VERSE 3
Our foes and enemies rejoice
Injustice seems to reign
Lord, we are shaken and we are losing strength
How long, O Lord, how long?
VERSE 4
But we will trust Your steadfast love
Your grace will be our song
You bring new mercies with ev’ry rising sun
How long, O Lord, how long?

Update: I posted a year ago about my struggles with PTSD stemming from military combat and sexual trauma (yes I am a male, and men still experience sexual trauma). I now have a PTSD service dog that is specifically trained for veterans! My dog has helped me so very much! At times, I still wonder How long O Lord, but it is all in His hands!

[@chrisdiaz577]

Glad your doing well!

[@allisonstokes9239]

My grandpa just got his service dog for PTSD from Vietnam. The family has really noticed a positive change in him! God bless you! Have a great New year!

1 How long, O LORD? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me? 2 How long must I take counsel in my soul and have sorrow in my heart all the day? How long shall my enemy be exalted over me? 3 Consider and answer me, O LORD my God; light up my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death, 4 lest my enemy say, "I have prevailed over him," lest my foes rejoice because I am shaken. 5 But I have trusted in your steadfast love; my heart shall rejoice in your salvation. 6 I will sing to the LORD, because he has dealt bountifully with me. (Psalms 13, ESV)

[@beverlyrobertson1601]

This is truly the most beautiful song. I am a hospice chaplain, and this is the heart cry of many of my patients and their families, How long oh Lord? but this song says so perfectly that God will restore if we trust. His grace is our song. Thank you for this lovely reminder of God's presence in our suffering.

[@axlcrush]

How long? Reminds me of the cry of the martyrs since the 5th seal was opened. We await the imminent 6th seal rapture. Come Lord Jesus!

[@worshipprayer8165]

Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was and is and is to come. Long Live King Jesus our Lord and Saviour.

Just this morning I was wondering how long until Jesus comes back.. The struggle against sin can be very much overwhelming.. 'We look to heaven...'

[@georgeseda2565]

The Lord is with you and all of us my sister. He sees your struggle with suffering and sin. Cast all your cares on Him for he cares for you. 1 Peter 5:7 Praying for you.

"He who endures to the end shall be saved." "Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto you also are called, and have professed a good profession before many witnesses." "He that has begun a good work in you will complete it unto the day of Christ Jesus." "I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Finally, there is laid up for me the crown is righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to me on that Day, and not to me only but also to all those who have loved His appearing." Keep singing, Church. Keep looking UP. He is coming soon. Amen. God bless you all. 🌹

[@cheycasters]

So very true.🎸

[@billyhardy6294]

Wow! That is all I can say…I don’t know what I expected when I clicked to hear this song,..But it is powerful! The pain is so real (for so many people) and I don’t have words so often but to say “how long oh lord”… Choosing to trust is hard…right, but so hard some days. Those days when you don’t see hope and you cling to faith and long for the day when faith gives way to sight. There are days you don’t want to keep going and pushing/fighting/telling/etc, but you keep moving in faith, walking through the heartache and wiping the tears…That is me tonight. This song has reminded me of what I know and don’t want to know…the “how long” is not for me to decide. This is for the Lord to determine and for me to trust…that’s the hard part. Thank you!

[@ifeoluwayimikafadumo5975]

Powerful lyrics especially for times like this...God bless SGM tremendously

[@jonimaecapiniglara288]

My friends and I had a good discussion on how many of the top 25 songs doesn't reflect a lot of the Psalms themes: such as social justice or even songs of asking God "where are you?" And unfortunately these are questions that many Christians are asking.

[@timlyg]

Is that a critique of this song?

I love the music but why must it be presented like Bethel does.

[@jezortz]

how would you want it to be brother?

[@FollowChristFollower]

@@jezortz Lights on; beige blah sanctuary with a vase of cut flowers in front of a lecturn; 🤦🏻‍♀️ I wonder what commenters like this would say if they were wandering in the desert with the Israelites and God told them to set up camp. “Why do we have to set so many pieces only to take them down when God tells us to move?” “Why can’t it just be the tent and dividing curtains? “ 🤭😄😩
