Why Have You Abandoned Me (Responsorial Psalm 22) Palm Sunday Ps 22:8-9, 17-18, 19-20, 23-24 Based on Catholic Missal Verse by Arthur Hu 1977 [Chorus]
  Em D    Em D    Am            D        Em 
  My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?
[Verse 1]
Em             D
All who see me scoff at me;

Em                   D                 Em  D     Em
they mock at me with parted lips, they wag their heads:

      Em                          D
“He relied on the LORD; let him deliver him,

        A                 B
let him rescue him, if he loves him.”
[Chorus]
  Em D    Em D    Am            D        Em 
  My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?
[Verse 2]
        Em           D
Indeed, many dogs surround me,

  Em                       D
a pack of evildoers closes in upon me;

          Em                         D
They have pierced my hands they have pierced my feet

      G     A      B
I can count all my bones.
[Chorus]
  Em D    Em D    Am            D        Em 
  My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?
[Verse 3]
       Em                D
They divide my garments among them,

    Em             D
and for my vesture they cast lots.

    Em                  D
But you, O LORD, be not far from me;

     G     A         B
O my help, hasten to aid me.
[Chorus]
  Em D    Em D    Am            D        Em 
  My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?
[Verse 4]
          Em                    D
I will proclaim your name to my brethren;

       Em                           D
in the midst of the assembly I will praise you:

        Em                  D
You who fear the LORD, give praise to him;

        G                          B
all you descendants of Jacob, give glory to him;

  Em          A            D  Em
revere him, descendants of Israel!”
[Chorus]
  Em D    Em D    Am            D        Em 
  My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?

  Em D    Em D    Am            D        E
  My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?
