The document is a poem about pleading with God for mercy and forgiveness from sin and sadness. It expresses that no one could stand before God if He recorded all of our sins, but that He offers forgiveness. The speaker waits hopefully for God's word, waiting for Him more than watchmen wait for sunrise. The poem encourages hope in one's Savior Jesus, who prayed from the cross that the Father would forgive those who crucified Him as they did not understand their actions.

be not deaf to my poor pleading, in Your mercy, hear my voice. Be not deaf to my poor pleading, in Your mercy, hear my voice.
If you, Lord, record our sinning
who could then before You stand? But with You there is forgiveness; You shall ever be revered. But with You there is forgiveness; You shall ever be revered.
For the Lord my heart is waiting,
for His word I hope and wait. More than watchmen wait for sunrise I am waiting for the Lord. More than watchmen wait for sunrise I am waiting for the Lord.
Hope, o people, in you Saviour,
He will save you from your sin. Jesus from His cross is praying, 'Father, forgive them, they know not what they do.' Jesus from His cross is praying, 'Father, forgive them, they know not what they do.'
