Joyfully Waiting

Psalm 130:1-8

¹ I cry out to you from the depths, LORD ² my Lord, listen to my voice! Let your ears pay close attention to my request for mercy! ³ If you kept track of sins, LORD my Lord, who would stand a chance? ⁴ But forgiveness is with you that’s why you are honored. ⁵ I hope, LORD. My whole being hopes, and I wait for God’s promise. ⁶ My whole being waits for my Lord more than the night watch waits for morning; yes, more than the night watch waits for morning! ⁷ Israel, wait for the LORD! Because faithful love is with the LORD; because great redemption is with our God! ⁸ He is the one who will redeem Israel from all its sin.
