1 O Lord, I have cried to You out of the deep places.

Out of the depths I have cried to You, O Lord;

2 L ord, hear my voice! Let Your ears hear the voice of my prayers.

Lord, hear my voice! Let Your ears be attentive To the voice of my supplications.

3 I f you, Lord, should write down our sins, O Lord, who could stand?

If You, Lord, should mark iniquities, O Lord, who could stand?

4 B ut You are the One Who forgives, so You are honored with fear.

But there is forgiveness with You, That You may be feared.

5 I wait for the Lord. My soul waits and I hope in His Word.

I wait for the Lord, my soul waits, And in His word I do hope.

6 M y soul waits for the Lord more than one who watches for the morning; yes, more than one who watches for the morning.

My soul waits for the Lord More than those who watch for the morning— Yes, more than those who watch for the morning.

7 O Israel, hope in the Lord! For there is loving-kindness with the Lord. With Him we are saved for sure.

O Israel, hope in the Lord; For with the Lord there is mercy, And with Him is abundant redemption.

8 A nd He will save Israel from all their sins.

And He shall redeem Israel From all his iniquities.
