My eyes are weary from waiting to see you keep your promise to come and save me.
Show me your love and save me, LORD, as you have promised.
I wait for you more eagerly than a soldier on guard duty waits for the dawn. Yes, I wait more eagerly than a soldier on guard duty waits for the dawn.
Please hurry, LORD, and answer my prayer. I feel hopeless. Don't turn away and leave me here to die.
I am worn out from crying, and my throat is dry. I have waited for you till my eyes are blurred.
Our eyes became weary, hopelessly looking for help from a nation that could not save us.
