The words
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.

How is this list ordered?
Curated pairings come first — a tune a curator recorded against this text, with the fitness they recorded. A tune that merely shares the meter is listed as a tune in the same meter and never as a pairing.
Nothing here is ranked by popularity or use. The page reports what a curator recorded, not a verdict of its own.
