Psalm 123 (Tate & Brady)
Psalm Text
1 On thee, who dwell'st above the skies,
for mercy wait my longing eyes;
2 As servants watch their masters' hands,
and maids their mistresses commands.
3,4 O then have mercy on us, Lord,
thy gracious aid to us afford;
To us, whom cruel foes oppress,
grown rich and proud by our distress.
