"From the Depths of Woe"

by Martin Luther, 1523

From the depths of woe I raise to Thee

The voice of lamentation;

LORD, turn a gracious ear to me,

And hear my supplication.

If Thou iniquities dost mark

our secret sins and misdeeds dark,

O who could stand before Thee?

O who could stand before Thee?

To wash away the crimson stain,

grace, grace alone availeth;

Our works, alas! are all in vain;

in much the best life faileth.

No man can glory in Thy sight,

all must alike confess Thy might,

And live alone by mercy.

And live alone by mercy.

Therefore my trust is in the LORD,

and not in mine own merit;

On Him my soul shall rest, His Word

upholds my fainting spirit.

His promised mercy is my fort,

my comfort and my sweet support;

I wait for it with patience.

I wait for it with patience.

What though I wait the live-long night,

and til the dawn appeareth.

My heart still trusteth in His might;

it doubteth not, nor feareth;

So let the Israelite in heart,

born of the Spirit, do his part,

And wait til God appeareth.

And wait til God appeareth.

Though great our sins and sore our woes,

his grace much more aboundeth;

His helping love no limit knows,

our utmost need it soundeth.

Our Shepherd good and true is he

who will at last his Israel free,

From all their sin and sorrow.

From all their sin and sorrow.

Psalm 130:1 “Out of the depths I cry to you, O LORD! O Lord, hear my voice! Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my please for mercy!”

Thank you for considering a piece of my art for you or your loved ones home.
