From the depths I cry In my pain I sigh It is dark tonight as I pray O god, bend your ear I plead for you to hear As I make my appeal for mercy If you were to count every one of my iniquities O god, I could not stand But with you there is forgiveness and mercy Than you may be feared As the watchmen wait for the sun to shine I know your mercy will arise I know your mercy will arise I’ll wait for you I’ll wait and in your word I’ll hope I’ll wait and in your word I’ll hope I will hope in the lord I know he will restore Though I am on the floor grieving sin I know he will redeem I know he has made me clean Not feeling the relief but I believe ‘Cause I know one day the sun will stop shining And soon the morning will not appear But on that day your love will prove unending ‘Cause like the dawn your love will arise Like the dawn your love will arise Like the dawn your mercy will rise Like the dawn your mercy will rise
