Out of the depths I cry to you

OUT OF THE DEPTHS I CRY TO YOU;
from darkest places I will call.
Incline your ear to me anew,
and hear my cry for mercy, Lord.
Were you to count my sinful ways,
how could I come before your throne?
Yet full forgiveness meets my gaze—
I stand, redeemed by grace alone.

I will wait for you, I will wait for you,
on your word I will rely;
I will wait for you, surely wait for you
till my soul is satisfied.

  1. So put your hope in God alone,
    take courage in his power to save;
    completely and forever won
    by Christ emerging from the grave.
    His steadfast love has made a way,
    and God himself has paid the price,
    that all who trust in him today
    find healing in his sacrifice.

I will wait for you, I will wait for you,
on your word I will rely;
I will wait for you, surely wait for you
till my soul is satisfied.

I will wait for you, I will wait for you
through the storm and through the night;
I will wait for you, surely wait for you,
for your love is my delight.
