Wholesome Waiting

orchidee



Tune: North Coates

('O my Saviour lifted')

Psalm 130

*********

Out of depths do I cry

To me, LORD, draw nigh

Hear my voice, let your ears

Listn, quell my fears

 

If you, LORD, should sins note

Of them make a quote

LORD, who shall stand before

You, 'tis none for sure

 

But forgiveness there be

We your mercies  see

So your name held reverent

By the penitent

 

My soul for the LORD waits

Not mere chances, fates

Let all hope in the LORD

Faithful is His word

 

With Him mercy, plenty

Redemption there be

He shall redeem us all

From sins, on Him call

  • dusk arising

    She stood on the bridge at midnite
    the sea was all a quivver
    she gave a cough
    her leg fell off
    and floated down the river
