PA515 Psalm 88:1-18 mp3

In this message, we consider this, the gloomiest psalm in the book, apparently written by a hopeless leper, trusting in Jehovah in spite of the darkness he lives in. He is near to the grave, cut off from God and from hope. All who knew him distanced themselves from him, as if he were already dead. He cried out to God, for he was ready to die from his youth, and all he formerly knew are swallowed by darkness.
