Psalms 77
Intro: The meditations of the psalmist -- God's great and gracious works. (To the chief Musician, to Jeduthun, A Psalm of Asaph.)

1 I cried unto God with my voice, even unto God with my voice, and he gave ear unto me.

2 In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord; my sore ran in the night, and ceased not; my soul refused to be comforted.

3 I remembered God, and was troubled; I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed. Selah.

4 Thou holdest mine eyes waking; I am so troubled that I cannot speak.

5 I have considered the days of old, the years of ancient times.

6 I call to remembrance my song in the night; I commune with mine own heart; and my spirit made diligent search.
