Waiting for the Redemption of the Lord
A Song of Ascents.
1Out of the depths I have cried to You, O Lord;
2Lord, hear my voice!
Let Your ears be attentive
To the voice of my supplications.
O Lord, who could stand?
4But there is forgiveness with You,
That You may be feared.
5I wait for the Lord, my soul waits,
And in His word I do hope.
6My soul waits for the Lord
More than those who watch for the morning—
Yes, more than those who watch for the morning.
7O Israel, hope in the Lord;
For with the Lord there is mercy,
And with Him is abundant redemption.
8And He shall redeem Israel
From all his iniquities.
