Psalm to Pray — [Psalm 13](https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm+13&version=ESV&ref=mereorthodoxy.com)

> 1 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.
