A Prayer for Help
1
From the depths of my despair I call to you, Lord.
2
Hear my cry, O Lord;
listen to my call for help!
3
If you kept a record of our sins,
who could escape being condemned?
4
But you forgive us,
so that we should reverently obey you.
5
I wait eagerly for the Lord's help,
and in his word I trust.
6
I wait for the Lord
more eagerly than watchmen wait for the dawn—
than watchmen wait for the dawn.
7
Israel, trust in the Lord,
because his love is constant
and he is always willing to save.
-- --
8
He will save his people Israel
from all their sins. note
