In our regular Chapel Meetings at the Mission, in accordance to Scripture and our Independent legacy, we practice dear, old, precious, Congregational Psalm Singing. Here, Dr. Spence sings Psalm 130. The words are—
“Out of the deeps of long distress,
The borders of despair,
I sent my cries to seek Thy Grace,
My groans to move Thine ear.
Great God, should Thy severer eye,
And Thine impartial hand,
Mark and revenge iniquity,
No mortal flesh could stand.
“But there are pardons with my God
For crimes of high degree;
Thy Son has bought them with His Blood,
To draw us near to Thee.
I wait for Thy Salvation, Lord,
With strong desires I wait;
My soul, invited by Thy Word,
Stands watching at Thy gate.”
