4 But with thee there forgiveness is, Thy word [of grace] doth this declare; That sinful man may worship thee In [joyful] hope without despair.
5 Therefore for thee, O Lord, I wait, My soul doth [daily] wait on thee; And on thy sure and faithful word My [constant] hope shall placed be.
6 My soul more waiteth on the Lord Than they that watch for [morning] light; More than the watchful man doth long To see a [pleasant] morning bright.
7 O Israel still hope in the Lord, Though [low and] broken be thy case; For with the Lord still mercy is, And we shall see his [pleased] face.
