Psalms 77:6

"Let me remember my song in the night:

Let me muse in my heart;"

And my spirit inquired, (saying),

In the first two lines he tells us how he bade himself recall the songs of thanksgiving which he had once been able to sing in the night, the quiet time of meditation and thanksgiving (Psalms 42:8; Psalms 92:2; Job 35:10), in contrast to his present cries of anguish or silence of despair.

Songmeans literally -song to the accompaniment of stringed instruments." P.B.V. -and search out my spirits," follows the reading of the LXX and some other Ancient Versions.
