1 A pilgrim song

Help, God—the bottom has fallen out of my life!

Master, hear my cry for help!

2 Listen hard! Open your ears!

Listen to my cries for mercy.

3 If you, God, kept records on wrongdoings,

who would stand a chance?

4 As it turns out, forgiveness is your habit,

and that's why you're worshiped.

5 I pray to God—my life a prayer—

and wait for what he'll say and do.

6 My life's on the line before God, my Lord,

waiting and watching till morning,

waiting and watching till morning.

7 O Israel, wait and watch for God—

with God's arrival comes love,

with God's arrival comes generous redemption.

8 No doubt about it—he'll redeem Israel,

buy back Israel from captivity to sin.
