[1] A Song of the going up. Out of the deep have I sent up my cry to you, O Lord. [2] Lord, let my voice come before you: let your ears be awake to the voice of my prayer. [3] O Jah, if you took note of every sin, who would go free? [4] But there is forgiveness with you, so that you may be feared. [5] I am waiting for the Lord, my soul is waiting for him, and my hope is in his word. [6] My soul is watching for the Lord more than those who are watching for the morning; yes, more than the watchers for the morning. [7] O Israel, have hope in the Lord; for with the Lord is mercy and full salvation. [8] And he will make Israel free from all his sins.
