1 My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?

Why are you so far from saving me,

so far from my cries of anguish?

1 My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?

Why are you so far from saving me, from the words of my groaning?

1 My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

Why art thou so far from helping me, and from the words of my roaring?

1 My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?

Why are you so far away when I groan for help?

1 My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?

Why are You so far from helping Me,

And from the words of My groaning?

1 My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?

You seem far from saving me,

far away from my groans.

1 My •God, my •God, why hast thou forsaken me? why art thou far from my salvation, from the words of my groaning?

1 My God, my God, 

why have you abandoned me? 

Why are you so far away from helping me, 

so far away from the words of my groaning? 

1 My God, my God, why have You forsaken me?

Why are You so far from my deliverance

and from my words of groaning?

1 My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?

Why are you so far from helping me, from the words of my groaning?

1 My God, my God why have you forsaken me?

Why are you far from helping me, far from the words of my groaning?

1 My God, my God, why have you deserted me?

Why do you seem to be so far away when I need you to save me?

Why do you seem to be so far away that you can’t hear my groans?

1 My God, my God, why have You forsaken me?

Far from my deliverance are the words of my groaning.
