A Prayer for Mercy

A song for going up to worship.

123 Lord, I look upward to you,
    you who live in heaven.
Slaves depend on their masters,
    and a female servant depends on her mistress.
In the same way, we depend on the Lord our God;
    we wait for him to show us mercy.

Have mercy on us, Lord. Have mercy on us,
    because we have been insulted.
We have suffered many insults from lazy people
    and much cruelty from the proud.
