Our eyes wait on the Lord
I lift my eyes to you, the one who lives in the heavens. As servants watch their masters' hands, and a servant girl watches her mistress's hand, our eyes look to the LORD our God until he shows us mercy. Have mercy on us, LORD, have mercy on us, because we've had more than enough contempt. Our soul has had more than enough of the scorn of those at ease and the contempt of the proud.
I lift my eyes up to you, you who live in the heavens. Look — the way the eyes of servants look to the hand of their masters, and the eyes of a servant girl to the hand of her mistress, that's how our eyes wait on the Lord our God till he's gracious to us. Be gracious to us, Lord, be gracious to us, because we've had more than enough contempt. Our soul has had more than enough of the laughing of the ones at ease and the contempt of the proud.
Unto thee lift I up mine eyes, O thou that dwellest in the heavens. Behold, as the eyes of servants look unto the hand of their masters, and as the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress; so our eyes wait upon the LORD our God, until that he have mercy upon us. Have mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy upon us: for we are exceedingly filled with contempt. Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scorning of those that are at ease, and with the contempt of the proud.
