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. https://slinky.to/HeavenAndEarth Lyrics: Aaron Shust + King David Music: Aaron Shust Production + Instruments: Nathan Nockels Cello: Gideon Klein Mix: Nick Rad Mastering: Bob Boyd Video Editing: Yaakov Schwarz Regarding Comments: In lieu of comments, please direct any words of praise or concern to our Heavenly Father, our God, Who will never leave or forsake us.

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
