Dear Lord … I am in the bleakest of moments and my very soul
is in anguish. I am crying out to you,
Almighty God. Oh Lord, you are my Lord.
From the deepness of my heart, I cry out for you. Listen again to your aching child and cover
me with your mercy.
If you would ever remember my sins, I would be hopeless to
even stand in this place, to ever come before You. Yet, I know of your infinite
love and forgiveness and I honor You above all else, for You alone are God.
I wait for you, oh Lord. I sense You, as I wait for
You. I know of You, for I know You. All my hopes rest upon Your promises. I wait in Your care. I eagerly wait as I yearn for You. I know You
will come to me. Yes, I eagerly wait. I
wait knowing you always come to as surely as the sun will come to the morning.
All who know of You, O Lord; hope in You. We know of your love, O Lord. It is steadfast
upon us and we cannot lose your attention. We trust in You. With you, O Lord
there is endless grace to redeem us and You alone, redeem the world from all
sin. Thank you, O Lord, Thank you. Amen
Out of the depths I cry to you, O Lord!
O Lord, hear my
voice!
Let your ears be attentive
to the voice of my
pleas for mercy!
If you, O Lord, should mark iniquities,
O Lord, who could
stand?
But with you there is forgiveness,
that you may be
feared.
I wait for the Lord, my soul waits,
and in his word I
hope;
my soul waits for the Lord
more than watchmen
for the morning,
more than watchmen
for the morning.
O Israel, hope in the Lord!
For with the Lord
there is steadfast love,
and with him is
plentiful redemption.
And he will redeem Israel
from all his
iniquities.
Psalm 130 English Standard Version
