I lift up my eyes to you, whose throne is in heaven.
I lift up my eyes to you, whose throne is in heaven.

As the eyes of slaves look to the hand of their master,
so our eyes look to you oh LORD

I lift up my eyes to you, whose throne is in heaven.

As the eyes of slaves look to the hand of their mistress,
so our eyes look to you oh LORD (x5)

Mercy on us, O LORD,
for all that we have endured,
for all that we have endured.
