Forsaken Psalm 22 Official Lyric Video

Aaron Shust’s new song Forsaken (Psalm 22) is the second release of 10 Psalms on his 10th full-length album entitled Heaven + Earth. This Psalm is believed to have been written while David was in the desert, fleeing for his life from King Saul. Considered a Messianic Psalm, the opening line (“Eli Eli lama azavtani?” in Hebrew) was quoted by Jesus while on the cross, drawing attention to the remarkably accurate, prophetic statements finding their fulfillment even as He spoke.

“Forsaken (Psalm 22)” the Single releases February 10th, 2023 and the entire “Heaven + Earth” album releases March 17th, 2023.

LYRICS

CHORUS
O my God my God
Why have You forsaken me? My God my God
Come quickly to my aid
Come quickly to my aid

VERSE 1
O my God I cried,
I cried out by day
But You did not answer
O my God I cried
I cried out by night
But there was no rest for me

VERSE 2
Our fathers trusted in You
They were never disappointed You delivered
But I’m poured out like water
My bones are all disjointed
And all who see are mocking me

VERSE 3
A band of evil men has closed in on me
And pierced my hands and feet
Dogs are surrounding, mockers are shouting
“If God delight in him, let Him deliver him!”

BRIDGE 1
Lama azavtani Eli
Eli Eli lama azavtani Eli

BRIDGE 2
Enthroned on the praises of Israel You are holy still
Enthroned on the praises of Israel You are
You are
You are

CHORUS
my God my God
Why have You forsaken me?
O My God my God
Come quickly to my aid
Come quickly to my aid
