Psalm 40:1-2

The Voice

Psalm 40

For the worship leader. A song of David.

¹I waited a long time for the Eternal;
    He finally knelt down to hear me.
    He listened to my weak and whispered cry.
²He reached down and drew me
    from the deep, dark hole where I was stranded, mired in the muck and clay.
    With a gentle hand, He pulled me out
To set me down safely on a warm rock;
    He held me until I was steady enough to continue the journey again.
