From the depths I call to You, O Lord Psalm Lenten

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.

From the depths I call to You, O Lord, Listen to my cry.

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.

From the depths I call to You, O Lord, Listen to my cry.

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.

From the depths I call to You, O Lord, Listen to my cry.
