LORD, from the depths I call to you;
LORD, from the depths I call to you;
Lord, hear me from on high
And give attention to my voice
when I for mercy cry.
LORD, in your presence who can stand,
if you our sins record?
But yet forgiveness is with you,
that we may fear you, LORD.
I wait—my soul waits—for the LORD;
my hope is in his word.
More than the watchman waits for dawn
my soul waits for the Lord.
O Isr’el, put your hope in God,
for mercy is with him
And full redemption. From their sins
his people he’ll redeem.
