Waiting for the Redemption of the Lord

A Song of Ascents.
  1Out of the depths I have cried to You, O Lord;
   2Lord, hear my voice!
   Let Your ears be attentive
   To the voice of my supplications.
  3If You, Lord, should mark iniquities,
   O Lord, who could stand?
   4But there isforgiveness with You,
   That You may be feared.
  5I wait for the Lord, my soul waits,
   And in His word I do hope.
   6My soul waits for the Lord
   More than those who watch for the morning—
   Yes, more than those who watch for the morning.
  7O Israel, hope in the Lord;
   For with the Lordthere is mercy,
   And with Him is abundant redemption.
   8And He shall redeem Israel
   From all his iniquities.
