“But thou, O Lord, art a God full of compassion, and gracious, longsuffering, and plenteous in mercy and truth.”
God's character is recalled: "But you, O Lord, are a God merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness." The recitation of God's merciful, gracious, patient, and faithful character becomes the final ground for hope. This description echoes the formula of God's self-revelation in Exodus 34.
