Psalm 123:1-2

Our Eyes Look to the Lord Our God

A Song of Ascents.

123 To you I lift up my eyes,
O you who are enthroned 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.

Psalm 42:5

 5 Why are you cast down, O my soul,
and why are you in turmoil within me?
Hope in God; for I shall again praise him,
my salvation [1]

Psalm 42:8

 8 By day the Lord commands his steadfast love,
and at night his song is with me,
a prayer to the God of my life.

Psalm 43:3-5

 3 Send out your light and your truth;
let them lead me;
let them bring me to your holy hill
and to your dwelling!
 4 Then I will go to the altar of God,
to God my exceeding joy,
and I will praise you with the lyre,
O God, my God.

 5 Why are you cast down, O my soul,
and why are you in turmoil within me?
Hope in God; for I shall again praise him,
my salvation and my God.
