From the depths of despair, O Lord, I call for You for help. Hear my cry, O Lord! Pay attention to my prayer. Lord, if You kept a record of our sins, who, O Lord, could ever survive! But You offer forgiveness, that we might learn to fear You.
I am counting on the Lord; yes, I am I am counting on Him. I have put my hope in His word. I long for the Lord more than sentries long for the dawn, yes, more than sentries long for the dawn.
O Israel, hope in the Lord; for with the Lord there is unfailing love. His redemption overflows. He Himself will redeem Israel from every kind of sin.
