Out of the depths we cry to You, O Lord.
From our brokenness that brought about Good Friday, we cry to You, O Lord. Your ears have been attentive to the voice of your people. You have answered our pleas for mercy.
O Lord, if you kept a record of our wrongs, we would have a reason to be afraid. O Lord, if you kept a record of our wrongs, who would dare stand before You? But with You there is forgiveness.
Because of Jesus, there is forgiveness.
Now we do not live in fear, but in holy awe of You.
Oursouls wait forYou. All our hope is in You.
We hope in Your Word. Your Word made fesh.
As surely as He has come, He is coming again. And our souls eagerly await His return.
Oh people of God, hope in the Lord! For with the Lord there is steadfast love and plentiful redemption - He has redeemed us from all of our sins.
BASED ON PSALM 130
