1 A song for going up to worship. O LORD, out of the depths I call to you. 2 O Lord, hear my voice. Let your ears be open to my pleas for mercy. 3 O LORD, who would be able to stand if you kept a record of sins? 4 But with you there is forgiveness so that you can be feared. 5 I wait for the LORD, my soul waits, and with hope I wait for his word. 6 My soul waits for the LORD more than those who watch for the morning, more than those who watch for the morning. 7 O Israel, put your hope in the LORD, because with the LORD there is mercy and with him there is unlimited forgiveness. 8 He will rescue Israel from all its sins.
