H.11 From the Depths I Call / Psalm 129

Chorus:
From the depths I call to you, O Lord,
Listen to my cry.

Lord, in compassion, listen to my pleading,
Listen, to my cry.
If you refuse, Lord, to forgive your people’s sins,
We would surely die.

So I am waiting, waiting for him patiently,
Hoping in his word,
More than the watchman waiting for the dawn to come,
I await the Lord.

So let us trust him for in him is mercy;
He, the Lord, is kind.
He gives us pardon, generous redemption,
Casts our sins behind.
