1 LORD, from the depths I call to you;
Lord, hear me from on high
and give attention to my voice
when I for mercy cry.

2. LORD, in Your presence who can stand
if You our sins record?
but yet forgiveness is with You,
that we may fear You, LORD.

1 Out of the depths I cry to You,
in darkest places I will call.
Incline Your ear to me anew,
and hear my cry for mercy, Lord.

2 Were You to count my sinful ways,
how could I come before Your throne?
Yet full forgiveness meets my gaze,
I stand redeemed by grace alone.

Chorus 1
I will wait for You, I will wait for You,
on Your word I will rely.
I will wait for You, surely wait for You,
till my soul is satisfied.

3 So, put Your hope in God alone.
Take courage in His power to save,
completely and forever won
by Christ's emerging from the grave. (chorus)

4 Now He has come to make a way,
and God Himself has paid the price,
that all who trust in Him today,
find healing in his sacrifice. Chorus 1

Chorus 2
I will wait for You, I will wait for You,
through the storm and through the night.
I will wait for You, surely wait for You,
for Your love is my delight.

3. I wait, my soul waits for the LORD.
My hope is in His word.
More than the watchmen wait for dawn,
my soul waits for the Lord.

4. Now Israel, put your hope in God,
for mercy is with Him
and full redemption. From their sins
His people He'll redeem.
