I Lift Up My Eyes to You
1A song of ascents.
I lift up my eyes to You,
the One enthroned in heaven.
2As the eyes of servants
look to the hand of their master,
as the eyes of a maidservant
look to the hand of her mistress,
so our eyes are on the LORD our God
until He shows us mercy.
3Have mercy on us, O LORD, have mercy,
for we have endured much contempt.
4We have endured much scorn from the arrogant,
much contempt from the proud.
