I call for your help.
Hear my cry, O Lord.

Our Father, who is in Heaven...
I long for the Lord
more than sentries long for the dawn,
yes, more than sentries long for the dawn. (Ps. 130:6)

yes, I am counting on him.
I have put my hope in his word. (Ps. 130:5)

Lord, if you kept a record of our sins,
who, O Lord, could ever survive?
But you offer forgiveness,
that we might learn to fear you. (Ps. 130:3-4)

I don't concern myself with matters too great
or too awesome for me to grasp. (Ps. 131:1)
