Psalm 130

Out of the depths I call . . .
LORD, if you kept an account
of iniquities
LORD, who could stand?
But with you there is forgiveness . . .
I wait for the LORD
more than watchmen for the morning.

Depths of despair.

• of need
• of sin

Lord, I call, and I wait.

Just like an anxious, tired watchman.

I know the sun is coming – never fails.

But Lord . . . it seems to be taking its time.

Our of the depths of this night I call.

Lord, come!

Save me! Forgive me! Redeem me!

Be my strong deliverer.

With you, you alone, there is redemption.

I put my hope in you!
