Psalm 130
A song for those who go up to Jerusalem to worship the Lord.
1 Lord, I cry out to you
because I’m suffering so deeply.
2Lord, listen to me.
Pay attention to my cry for your mercy.
3 Lord, suppose you kept a close watch on sins.
Lord, who then wouldn’t be found guilty?
4But you forgive.
So we can serve you with respect.
5With all my heart I wait for the Lord to help me.
I put my hope in his word.
6I wait for the Lord to help me.
I want his help more than night watchmen want the morning to come.
I’ll say it again.
I want his help more than night watchmen want the morning to come.
7Israel, put your hope in the Lord,
because the Lord’s love never fails.
He sets his people completely free.
8He himself will set Israel
free from all their sins.
