My Soul Waits for the Lord
130A Song of Ascents. Out of the depths I cry to you, O Lord!
2
O Lord, hear my voice! Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my pleas for mercy!
3
If you, O Lord, should mark iniquities, O Lord, who could stand?
4
But with you there is forgiveness, that you may be feared.
5
I wait for the Lord, my soul waits, and in his word I hope;
6
my soul waits for the Lord more than watchmen for the morning, more than watchmen for the morning.
7
O Israel, hope in the Lord! For with the Lord there is steadfast love, and with him is plentiful redemption.
8
And he will redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
