Song Text

43:23 exsurge quare dormis Domine exsurge %et; ne repellas in finem
43:24 quare faciem tuam avertis oblivisceris inopiae nostrae et tribulationis nostrae

23 Wake up, O Lord! Why do you sleep? Get up! Do not reject us forever.
24 Why do you look the other way? Why do you ignore our suffering and oppression?
