Psalms 123
123
A Prayer for Mercy
A song of the stairway
1O God-Enthroned in heaven, I lift my eyes toward you in worship.
2The way I love you
is like the way a servant wants to please his master,
the way a maid waits for the orders of her mistress.
We look to you, our God, with passionate longing
to please you and discover more of your mercy and grace.
3-4For we’ve had more than our fill of this scoffing and scorn—
this mistreatment by the wealthy elite.
Lord, show us your mercy!
Lord, show us your grace!

Looking for God’s Favor
A song of ascents.
1I lift my eyes to You,
the One enthroned in heaven. # Ps 2:4; 121:1; 141:8
2Like a servant’s eyes on his master’s hand,
like a servant girl’s eyes on her mistress’s hand,
so our eyes are on the Lord our God
until He shows us favor. # Ps 25:15
3Show us favor, Lord, show us favor,
for we’ve had more than enough contempt. # Neh 4:4; Ps 4:1; 119:22
4We’ve had more than enough
scorn from the arrogant
and contempt from the proud. # Is 32:9,11; Am 6:1
