Psalm 130

sings of confident hope that God heals, forgives and guides.

Two songs follow, each with a distinctive mood.

We Wait In Hope For Your Word (Psalm 130)

Upbeat, full-throated rock.

Verse 1
Out of the depths we cry to you 
O Holy One hear us 
Held to our sin, God, who could stand 
We come for forgiveness 
O Holy One, hear us

 

Refrain 
We wait in hope for your word 
More than watchmen for the morning 
We wait in hope for your word 
And the dawn is never failing

 

Verse 2 
Always with you, unfailing love 
O Holy One, hear us 
So we hold you in love and awe 
We come for forgiveness 
O Holy One, hear us

We Wait Full of Hope (Psalm 130)

Breathless, contemplative

 

 

Refrain: 
We wait full of hope for the Holy One, 
our whole being breathless 


Verse 1: 
Out of the depths I have cried to you, 
cried to you, our covenant God 
O Holy One, won't you hear my voice 
Hear my voice, our covenant God 

 

Refrain 

Verse 2: 
Were you on vigil to watch for sin, 
who could stand, our covenant God 
With you instead is forgiving love. 
We’re in awe, our covenant God 

 

Refrain 

Verse 3: 
All of our being waits for you, 
longs for you, our covenant God 
More that the night watchmen watch for dawn, 
wait for dawn, our covenant God 

 

Refrain 

Verse 4: 
O Israel, our nation, wait for our covenant God 
Unfailing love, liberating love 
like the dawn, our covenant God 

 

Refrain
