Psalm 130

My Soul Waits for the Lord

1. A Song of Ascents. 1 Out of the depths I cry to you, O Lord!

2. O Lord, hear my voice! 2 Let your ears be attentive 2 to the voice of my pleas for mercy!

3. If you, O Lord, should mark iniquities, 3 O Lord, who could stand?

4. But with you there is forgiveness, 4 that you may be feared.

5. I wait for the Lord, my soul waits, 5 and in his word I hope;

6. my soul waits for the Lord 6 more than watchmen for the morning, 6 more than watchmen for the morning.

7. O Israel, hope in the Lord! 7 For with the Lord there is steadfast love, 7 and with him is plentiful redemption.

8. And he will redeem Israel 8 from all his iniquities.
