The Cyber Hymnal ‎#1499

1499. From the Depths My Prayer Ascendeth

1. From the depths my prayer ascendeth
Unto God on high;
Hear, O Lord, my supplication
And my cry.

2. None can stand unscathed and blameless
In Thy judgment just,
But the contrite in Thy mercy
Humbly trust.

3. Lord, my hope is in Thy promise,
And I wait for Thee
More than they who watch for morning,
Light to see.

4. With the Lord is tender mercy,
And redeeming love;
Israel, look for full salvation
From above.
