In His Word Have I Hope
Psalm 130
Dwight Armstrong

Out of the depths have I cried unto God;
If the Eternal One should mark our sins;
Who then, Almighty God, could hope to stand?
But God shows mercy to those who fear Him.

I wait for God; in His Word have I hope;
On the Eternal God my soul does wait.
More than those who watch for morning to come.
I say more than those who for morning watch.

Let Isr'el hope; there is mercy with God.
Plent'ous redemption from iniquity.
In the Eternal One shall Isr'el hope.
Let the Eternal God in love be feared.
