123
Prayer for the Lord’s Help.
A Song of Ascents.
1 To You I Alift up my eyes,
O You who Bare enthroned in the heavens!
2  Behold, as the eyes of Aservants look to the hand of their master,
As the eyes of a maid to the hand of her mistress,
So our Beyes look to the Lord our God,
Until He is gracious to us.
 
3  ABe gracious to us, O Lord, be gracious to us,
For we are greatly filled Bwith contempt.
4 Our soul is greatly filled
With the Ascoffing of Bthose who are at ease,
And with the Ccontempt of the proud.
