You hold my eyes waking: I am so troubled that I cannot speak. Context In Distress, I Sought the Lord
1I cried to God with my voice, even to God with my voice; and he gave ear to me. 2In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord: my sore ran in the night, and ceased not: my soul refused to be comforted. 3I remembered God, and was troubled: I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed. Selah. 4You hold my eyes waking: I am so troubled that I cannot speak. 5I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times. 6I call to remembrance my song in the night: I commune with my own heart: and my spirit made diligent search. 7Will the Lord cast off for ever? and will he be favorable no more? 8Is his mercy clean gone for ever? does his promise fail for ever more? 9Has God forgotten to be gracious? has he in anger shut up his tender mercies? Selah. 10And I said, This is my infirmity: but I will remember the years of the right hand of the most High. 11I will remember the works of the LORD: surely I will remember your wonders of old. 12I will meditate also of all your work, and talk of your doings. 13Your way, O God, is in the sanctuary: who is so great a God as our God? 14You are the God that do wonders: you have declared your strength among the people. 15You have with your arm redeemed your people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah. 16The waters saw you, O God, the waters saw you; they were afraid: the depths also were troubled. 17The clouds poured out water: the skies sent out a sound: your arrows also went abroad. 18The voice of your thunder was in the heaven: the lightning lightened the world: the earth trembled and shook. 19Your way is in the sea, and your path in the great waters, and your footsteps are not known. 20You led your people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
