PSALM 130, by OLD TESTAMENT BIBLE First Line: From depth of greif Last Line: Forgetting follys faults forgiving. | |||
From depth of greif Where droun'd I ly Lord for releife To Thee I cry My ernest, vehement crying praying Grant quick attending hearing weighing. O Lord if Thou Offences mark Who shall not bow To beare the cark But with thy justice mercy dwelleth Wherby thy worship more excelleth. On Thee my soul On Thee O Lord Dependeth whole And on Thy Word Though sore with blott of sin defaced Yet surest hope hath firmly placed Who longest watch Who soonest rise Can nothing match The early eyes The greedy eyes my soule erecteth While Gods true promise it expecteth. Then Israel On God attend Attend him well Who still Thy friend In kindness hath Thee deare esteemëd And often, often erst redeem'd. Now as before Unchanged hee Will Thee restore Thy state will free All wickedness from Jacob driving Forgetting follys faults forgiving. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...PSALM 121 by OLD TESTAMENT BIBLE PSALM 136 by OLD TESTAMENT BIBLE PSALM 139 by OLD TESTAMENT BIBLE PSALM 8.
