I wait for the Lord, my (A)soul waits,
And I [a]wait (B)for His word.
My soul waits in hope for the Lord
More than the watchmen (C)for the morning;
Yes, more than the watchmen for the morning.
Israel, (D)wait for the Lord;
For with the Lord there is (E)mercy,
And with Him is (F)abundant redemption.
