Psalm 130

A Song of degrees.

1        Lord, from the depths to thee I cry'd.

2                 My voice, Lord, do thou hear:

          Unto my supplication's voice

                   give an attentive ear.

3        Lord, who shall stand, if thou, O Lord,

                   should'st mark iniquity?

4        But yet with thee forgiveness is,

                   that fear'd thou mayest be.

5        I wait for God, my soul doth wait,

                   my hope is in his word.

6        More than they that for morning watch,

                   my soul waits for the Lord;

          I say, more than they that do watch

                   the morning light to see.

7        Let Israel hope in the Lord,

                   for with him mercies be;

          And plenteous redemption

                   is ever found with him.

8        And from all his iniquities

                   he Isr'el shall redeem.
