Psalm 130

Out of the depths I cry to you, O LORD.
Lord, hear my voice! Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications!
If you, O LORD, should mark iniquities, Lord, who could stand?
But there is forgiveness with you, so that you may be revered.
I wait for the LORD, my soul waits, and in his word I hope;
my soul waits for the Lord more than those who watch for the morning, more than
those who watch for the morning.
O Israel, hope in the LORD! For with the LORD there is steadfast love, and with him
is great power to redeem.
It is he who will redeem Israel from all its iniquities.

DG Comment: "I wait for the LORD, my soul waits, and in his word I hope;
my soul waits for the Lord more than those who watch for the morning, more than
those who watch for the morning." I begin this morning waiting and watching with hope for the Lord. For Hold Week is coming and salvation to follow.
