Lyrics

Job chapter 17
Job continues to defend his innocence
My spirit is crushed, and my life is nearly snuffed out. The grave
Is ready to receive me. I am surrounded by mockers. I watch how
Bitterly they taunt me. You must defend my innocence, O God, since
No one else will stand up for me. You have closed their minds to
Understanding, but do not let them triumph. They betray their friends
For their own advantage, so let their children faint with hunger
God has made a mockery of me among the people; they spit in my face
My eyes are swollen with weeping, and I am but a shadow of my former
Self. The virtuous are horrified when they see me. The innocent rise
Up against the ungodly. The righteous keep moving forward, and those
With clean hands become stronger and stronger. As for all of you
Come back with a better argument, though I still won't find a wise
Man among you. My days are over. My hopes have disappeared. My
Heart's desires are broken. These men say that night is day
They claim that the darkness is light. What if I go to the
Grave and make my bed in darkness? What if I call the grave
My father and the maggot my mother or my sister? Where
Then is my hope? Can anyone find it? No, my hope will go
Down with me to the grave. We will rest together in the dust
