Prayer for Relief from ContemptA Song of Ascents.1Unto You I lift up my eyes,
O You who dwell in the heavens.
2Behold, as the eyes of servants look to the hand of their masters,
As the eyes of a maid to the hand of her mistress,
So our eyes look to the Lord our God,
Until He has mercy on us.
3Have mercy on us, O Lord, have mercy on us!
For we are exceedingly filled with contempt.
4Our soul is exceedingly filled
With the scorn of those who are at ease,
With the contempt of the proud. The Holy Bible, New King James Version, Copyright © 1982 Thomas Nelson. All rights reserved.
