Paraphrase of Psalms 130 - 131 (lyricist Adam M.L Tice): "For You, My God, I wait"

Text copyrighted 2011 by GIA Publications -- Utilized in Glory to God (Westminster John Knox Press, 2013):
"For you, my God, I wait
with hope born of the Word.
Like sleepless ones who long to dream,
I wait and call my Lord.

Lord, hear my pleading voice,
and let me know you hear!
As sleepless ones feel rest approach,
I know my God is near.

If you should list my faults,
the sins of heart and hand,
Like sleepless ones who groan at dawn
I know I could not stand!

For even from the deep
I know you hear my cries.
Like sleepless ones who dream at last,
I ease my weary eyes.

And once my soul is still,
in you I find my nest,
at peace as though a child
upon a gentle mother's breast.

O God, you are my hope;
I know that you forgive.
Your love redeems me from the depths
so I may rise and live."
