Final answer:
The statement is true; Psalms of lament often include expressions of sorrow, requests for help, and expressions of trust in God's faithfulness.
Step-by-step explanation:
The statement is True: Typical components of a Psalm of lament do include lament, petition, and confession of trust. While a lamentation is a passionate expression of grief, often found in the Book of Psalms, it usually contains not just the expression of sorrow over the conditions being faced, but also a prayerful petition for God's help, and an expression of trust in God's faithfulness and righteousness. A psalm of lament expresses sorrow, yet also underlines a deep faith in God. The Elegy for Wilt the Stilt by William Heyen, although not a biblical psalm, shares characteristics of traditional laments as it mourns loss and reflects on the virtues of the departed. Similarly, Kathleen Doyle's discussion about the revolutionary approach to Psalms, referencing their interpretation and depictions, provides insight into how the elements of Psalm 15(16):5 can be linked to trust and divinity, which is central to a Psalm of lament.
