Words of Faith
But for You, O LORD, do I wait; it is You, O Lord my God, who will answer.
PSALM 38:15

Words of Faith
These are words of a true and strong faith, which in time of trouble lets everything else go and clings to the Word and grace of God, and does not doubt that God will hear and help him. Yet he does not prescribe to God the time or manner but simply says: "Thou wilt answer; I will hope and continue to hope."
From Seven Penitential Psalms, on Psalm 38 (Luther's Works 14:160)
