How Long? from Zema

Here is the lyrics for How Long?
We hope that you enjoy them just asmuch as we here at International Lyrics DataBase do.

How long, how long, how long?
Hope deferred makes the heart sick
Who can bear a broken spirit?

How long O Lord? Will you forget me forever?
How long will You hide Your face from me?
How long shall I take counsel in my soul?
Consider and hear me O Lord my God
Enlighten my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death
But I have trusted in Your mercy

I will sing to the Lord
Because He has dealt bountifully with me
When he opened the fifth seal
I saw under the altar the souls
Slain for the word of God
And testimony they held
They cried with a loud voice saying
How long O Lord, holy and true
Until you judge and avenge our blood
On those who dwell on the earth?

Rest a little while longer, brethren
