Psalm 123, 1650 Scottish Psalter
1. O thou that dwellest in the heav'ns, I lift mine eyes to thee.
2 Behold, as servants' eyes do look their masters' hand to see,
As handmaid's eyes her mistress' hand;
so do our eyes attend
Upon the Lord our God, until to us he mercy send.
3 O Lord, be gräcious to us, unto us gracious be;
Because replenished with contempt exceedingly are we.
4 Our soul is filled with scorn of those that at their ease abide, And with the insolent contempt of those that swell in pride.
