Psalm 123

Ad te levavi oculos meos

1 UNTO thee lift I up mine eyes * O thou that dwellest in the heavens.

2 Behold, even 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 * even so our eyes wait upon the Lord our God, until he have mercy upon us.

3 Have mercy upon us, O Lord, have mercy upon us * for we are utterly despised.

4 Our soul is filled with the scornful reproof of the wealthy * and with the despitefulness of the proud.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son * and to the Holy Ghost;
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be * world without end. Amen.
