Lyrics:

1. Out of the depths I cry to you, I cry to you, O Lord. Lord, open your ears and hear my voice, attend to the sound of my plea.

Refrain: With the Lord there is mercy and the fullness of redemption, call to him in your trials, he will answer whenever you call.

2. If you, O Lord, should mark our guilt, then, Lord, who could hope to survive? But with you is found forgiveness of sin, and mercy that we might revere you.

3. Trust in the Lord, count on his word, wait for the Lord, my soul. I will wait for the Lord all the days of my life as sentinels wait for the dawn.

4. More than sentinels wait for the dawn, let Israel wait for the Lord. For kindness is His, redemption for all, forgiveness of sins for his people.
