1A song for pilgrims ascending to Jerusalem. I lift my eyes to you, O God, enthroned in heaven. 2We keep looking to the Lord our God for his mercy, just as servants keep their eyes on their master, as a slave girl watches her mistress for the slightest signal. 3Have mercy on us, Lord , have mercy, for we have had our fill of contempt. 4We have had more than our fill of the scoffing of the proud and the contempt of the arrogant.
