Our Eyes Look to the Lord Our God
A Song of aAscents.
To you I blift up my eyes,
O you who are centhroned in the heavens!
2 Behold, as the eyes of servants
look to the hand of their master,
as the eyes of a maidservant
to the hand of her mistress,
so our eyes look to the Lord our God,
till he has mercy upon us.
3 aHave mercy upon us, O Lord, have mercy upon us,
for we have had more than enough of bcontempt.
4 Our soul has had more than enough
of athe scorn of bthose who are at ease,
of the contempt of cthe proud.
