Psalms 77:1

I cried out to God; I cried aloud to God to hear me.

2 In the day of trouble I sought the Lord; through the night my outstretched hands did not grow weary; my soul refused to be comforted.

3 I remembered You, O God, and I groaned; I mused and my spirit grew faint. Selah

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
