Good Lord, Where Are You?

"Good Lord, where are you?" is the cry of space-age man just as it was the cry of the ancient Hebrew. In this unusual book of 47 free-verse prayers based on the psalms, author Leslie Brandt translates both the anguish and the joy of the psalmist into the language and situation of modern man. He has not merely reworded 47 psalms, but writes as if he were a modern-day psalmist facing the anxiety-filled, depersonalized, and often lonely world of 20th-century man. Christians who feel that their prayers have disintegrated into the repetition of meaningless words will find in these prayers a freedom of expression that makes God and His grace real in today's hectic world.
