Midnight Cry on the Strings of Mercy | Psalm 4 Blues Song

🕊️ In this deeply prophetic blues interpretation of Psalm 4, we step into the quiet storm of the soul — where the cry of a righteous heart echoes through the midnight hours. This song, “Midnight Cry on the Strings of Mercy,” blends the raw honesty of David’s prayer with echoes from other powerful scriptures to form a gritty, spirit-filled blues lament.

Psalm 4 is more than a song — it’s a soul wrestle. David calls out in distress, rebukes the vanity of man, clings to righteousness, and finds peace not through circumstance but in Yahweh alone. This prophetic blues setting stays as close to the World English Bible (WEB) as possible while adding fresh spiritual insight through scriptures like Isaiah 26:3, Proverbs 3:24, and Isaiah 30:15. The lyrics are designed to stir the spirit, shake the dust off the faithless, and remind the weary soul: You are heard in the midnight hour.

This isn't just a performance—this is a Psalm for the set-apart, for the desperate and the faithful, sung over strings that remember heaven's sound.

📜 Psalm 4 – WEB (World English Bible)

For the Chief Musician; on Stringed Instruments. A Psalm by David.

1. Answer me when I call, God of my righteousness.
Give me relief from my distress.
Have mercy on me, and hear my prayer.

2. You sons of men, how long shall my glory be turned into dishonor?
Will you love vanity, and seek after falsehood? Selah.

3. But know that Yahweh has set apart for himself him who is godly:
Yahweh will hear when I call to him.

4. Stand in awe, and don’t sin.
Search your own heart on your bed, and be still. Selah.

5. Offer the sacrifices of righteousness.
Put your trust in Yahweh.

6. Many say, “Who will show us any good?”
Yahweh, let the light of your face shine on us.

7. You have put gladness in my heart,
more than when their grain and their new wine are increased.

8. In peace I will both lay myself down and sleep,
for you, Yahweh alone, make me live in safety.

🎶 Lyrics – "Midnight Cry on the Strings of Mercy"

[Verse 1 – The Call in the Dark]
Answer me when I call, O God of my right,
You who made a way through the narrowest night.
You brought me breath in my tightest squeeze,
Now I cry for mercy—bow low, and hear me, please.

[Verse 2 – The Rebuke of the Sons of Dust]
How long, you sons of man, will you twist what is true?
Chasing vapor, chasing lies, while the Spirit grieves through you. (Selah)
You've made idols of applause, sold truth for a mask—
But the Lord sets apart the faithful for a holy task.

[Verse 3 – A Sacred Separation]
Know this: Yahweh hears the cry of the pure,
Not the proud, not the mocker, not the lips unsure.
I tremble in awe, I shun the sin,
I wrestle with my soul till the morning breaks in. (Selah)

[Verse 4 – Inward Battle of the Night]
I lay on my bed, and I search my reins,
Underneath the stars where silence remains.
No incense of performance, no sacrifice bought—
Only righteousness rising from a heart You taught.

[Bridge – The Light of His Face]
Many murmur, “Who will show us the good?”
As if heaven were blind and lost in the wood.
But Yahweh, shine Your face like a fire refined,
Burn through the veil, blaze deep in my mind.

[Verse 5 – A Joy Not of Earth]
You have put joy in me—pure, unshaken wine,
More than feast-day harvest, more than bloodline vine.
It’s a song unsung by the lips of kings,
A gladness born on Your Spirit’s wings.

[Prophetic Echo – Isaiah 30:15 WEB]
(In returning and rest you will be saved)
(In quietness and trust, the soul is made brave)

[Verse 6 – The Sleep of the Set-Apart]
I will lie down in peace, no shadow to bind,
For You alone, Yahweh, guard my mind.
No gate unbarred, no wolf on the roam
Can breach the place where You make me home.

[Verse 7 – Inserted Revelation – Isaiah 50:10 WEB]
(Who among you fears Yahweh, obeys the voice of His Servant?)
(He walks in darkness, yet trusts in the name of Yahweh, ever fervent)

[Outro – The Final Cry]
So tune the strings of mercy, let the sound arise,
Let lamentation climb the starless skies.
This is no lullaby for the weary fool,
It’s the midnight cry of the ancient school.
(And still I call, and still You hear—)
(Yahweh my refuge, Yahweh draws near...)
