Psalms 130
(A song for worship.)
Trusting the Lord in Times of Trouble
1 From a sea of troubles
I call out to you, Lord.
2 Won't you please listen
as I beg for mercy?
3 If you kept record of our sins,
no one could last long.
4 But you forgive us,
and so we will worship you.
5 With all my heart,
I am waiting, Lord, for you!
I trust your promises.
6 I wait for you more eagerly
than a soldier on guard duty
waits for the dawn.
Yes, I wait more eagerly
than a soldier on guard duty
waits for the dawn.
7 Israel, trust the Lord!
He is always merciful,
and he has the power
to save you.
8 Israel, the Lord will save you
from all of your sins.
