Tune: Hereford
(\'O thou who camest from above\')
Psalm 130
********
Out of the depths to you, LORD, I cry
Hear my cry, do not pass me by
O LORD hear my voice and my pleas
My soul for refuge to you flees
If you, LORD, should mark our sins, keep
Record of wrongs, we shall mourn, weep
But with you there is forgiveness
That you we fear in your goodness
My soul waits for Him patiently
In His word I hope constantly
Let Israel hope in the LORD true
With Him they find blessings anew
Mercy, redemption, plenteous
His grace and salvation for us
He all Israel\'s sins shall redeem
It shall be true, not fantasy, dream
We thank you, LORD, sins you count not
Nor remember them, though were a lot
In your covenant promises sure
You forgive, forget them evermore
If we turn to your throne of grace
You will save us, redeem each race
Forgiveness, redemption you bring
In grateful thanks to you we sing
