Lord, if Thou shouldst mark transgressions, In Thy presence who shall stand? But with Thee there is forgiveness, That Thy Name may fear command.

For Jehovah I am waiting, And my hope is in His word. In His word of promise given; Yea, my soul waits for the Lord.

Verse 4

For the Lord my soul is waiting More than watchers in the night, More than thy for morning watching, Watching for the morning light.

Verse 5

Hope in God, ye waiting people; Mercies great with Him abound; With the Lord a full redemption From the guilt of sin is found.
