Out of the Depths

Last year in August we shared a video of a precious baby boy named Ezra Blaze. In that video his mother shared a line from a song. I wanted to share the whole song with you today. These wonderful words are based on Psalm 130. This song was written by Bob Kauflin and is from the album Psalms.

Out of the Depths

Out of the depths, O Lord, I cry to You

When I am tempted to despair

Though I might fail to trust Your promises

You never fail to hear my prayer

And if you judged my sin

I'd never stand again

But I see mercy in Your hands

chorus

So more than watchmen for the morning

I will wait for You, my God

When my fears come with no warning

In Your Word I'll put my trust

When the harvest time is over and I still see no fruit

I will wait, I will wait for you

The secret mysteries belong to You

We only know what You reveal

And all my questions that are unresolved

Don't change the wisdom of Your will

In every trial and loss

My hope is in the cross

Where Your compassion never fail

I pray that this will be your prayer today, that your hope would be in the cross in every trial and loss!
