5 You keep my eyes from sleep; I am so troubled that no words come.
6 My thoughts go back to the days of the past, to the years which are gone.
7 The memory of my song comes back to me in the night; my thoughts are moving in my heart; my spirit is searching with care.
8 Will the Lord put me away for ever? will he be kind no longer?
9 Is his mercy quite gone for ever? has his word come to nothing?
10 Has God put away the memory of his pity? are his mercies shut up by his wrath? (Selah.)
11 And I said, It is a weight on my spirit; but I will keep in mind the years of the right hand of the Most High.
