Tune: Richmond
('Fill thou my life, O Lord my God')
Psalm 130 v.4-8
********
Lord, there is forgiveness with you
That you may be feared true
Reverenced with awe, your mercy
Love, grace, reach e'en to me
I wait for the Lord, my soul waits
He knows all my estates
And in His word do I hope sure
It stands firm evermore
Yes, my soul waits with trust, patience
If I His presence sense
Or if it seems he me forsook
Trust He still on me looks
So I wait more than watchmen wait
For the morning, not late
It comes each day, it follows night
Dawn leads to clear daylight
Let His people hope in Him for
With Him is mercy sure
And too plenteous redemption
Abundant for each one
And He shall all our sins forgive
Redeem us, we shall live
Price of sins paid through Christ, God's Son
Salvation barring none
