PSALMS 130

1 Lord, I cry out to you from the depths of my pain. 2 Please listen to my cry, and pay attention to what I’m asking. 3 Lord, if you kept a list of sins, who could escape being condemned? 4 But you are forgiving so that we might respect you. 5 I’m waiting for the Lord, longingly waiting, for I trust in his word. 6 I long for the Lord to come, more than watchmen longing for the dawn to come, more than watchmen longing for the dawn to come. 7 Israel, put your hope in the Lord, for the Lord loves us with a trustworthy love and his salvation knows no limits. 8 He will save Israel from every sin.
