Der 130. Psalm

Language: German

Aus der Tiefe ruf ich dir,
höre, Gott, in deinen Höhen;
merk auf meiner Stimme Flehen,
neige, Herr, dein Ohr zu mir!

Gottes harr ich, und mein Geist
harrt, wie jammernd ich auch weine,
ob er mir nicht bald erscheine,
wie sein heilig Wort verheißt.

Meine Seele harret sein,
harrt von einer Morgenwache
bis zur andern Morgenwache
auf das Ende meiner Pein.
