What Need I Fear?

Prayer for Artists

I Wait for HaShem
Topic: Mercy I Wait for HaShem Out of the depths have I called Thee, O HaShem. Lord, hearken unto my voice; let Thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications. If Thou, HaShem, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who could stand? For with Thee there is forgiveness, that Thou mayest be feared. I wait for HaShem, my soul doth wait, and in His word do I hope. My soul waiteth for the Lord, more than watchmen for the morning; yea, more than watchmen for the morning. O Israel, hope in HaShem; for with HaShem there is mercy, and with Him is plenteous redemption. And He will redeem Israel from all his iniquities. - Psalms 130: 1-8
