Desert Place - Psalm 27:7-10 and 13-14

Hear, O Lord, when I cry with my voice: have mercy also upon me, and answer me. When thou saidst, Seek ye my face; my heart said unto thee, Thy face, Lord, will I seek.
Hide not thy face far from me; put not thy servant away in anger: thou hast been my help; leave me not, neither forsake me, O God of my salvation.
When my father and mother forsake me, then the Lord will take me up...
I had fainted, unless I had believed to see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.
Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and He shall strengthen thine heart: wait I say , on the Lord.

Hear my cry, O Lord.  In Your mercy let me hear Your voice. Answer me and give my heart strength. When Your Spirit moves within me, saying "Seek my face."  My heart runs after You and says, "Here I am, Lord. I long to see Your face."  When I cannot find You, when I wander or fail You, have mercy on me and please don't give up on me in anger. You have been my help and redeemer from those who were against me, even when it was myself. I beg You never to leave me or forsake me.  You are my only hope of salvation...  I know in my heart that though all others may forsake me, Lord, You will lift me up.   I had fainted if I had not believed this. Where can I run from Your presence?  Even in the desert -- I hear the Sea - faintly.  Oh my soul, wait on the Lord: be of good courage. Don't quit and He shall strengthen your heart.
