A song of Hope
C. Stanford
Out of the deep have I called unto Thee, O Lord.
Lord, Hear my voice,
O, let Thine ears consider well
the voice of my complaint.
If Thou Lord, will be extreme
to mark what is done amis:
O Lord, who may abide it?
For there is mercy with Thee,
therefore shalt Thou be feared.
I look for the Lord;
my soul doth wait for Him;
in his word is my trust.
[My soul looketh for the Lord,
more than watchmen wait for the morning.
Let Israel hope in the Lord;]
for with the Lord there is mercy,
and with Him is plentious redemption;
And He shall redeem Israel from all his sins.
