Psalter number 365.  Pardoning Mercy - Psalm 130

 

1. From the depths my prayer ascendeth

Unto God on high;

Hear, O Lord, my supplication

And my cry.

 

2. None can stand unscathed and blameless

In Thy judgement just,

But the contrite in Thy mercy

Humbly trust.

 

3. Lord, my hope is in Thy promise,

And I wait for Thee

More than they who watch for morning,

Light to see.

 

4. With the Lord is tender mercy,

And redeeming love;

Israel, look for full salvation

From above.
