My eyes fail from watching for your salvation, and for the fulfillment of your righteous promise.
Mine eyes fail for thy salvation, And for the word of thy righteousness.
My eyes fail, watching for Your salvation and for the fulfillment of Your righteous promise.
Mine eyes fail for thy salvation, And for thy righteous word.
My eyes are worn out looking for your saving help— looking for your word that will set things right.
Let your steadfast love come to me, O Lord, your salvation according to your promise.
my soul waits for the Lord more than those who watch for the morning, more than those who watch for the morning.
Answer me quickly, O Lord; my spirit fails. Do not hide your face from me, or I shall be like those who go down to the Pit.
I am weary with my crying; my throat is parched. My eyes grow dim with waiting for my God.
Our eyes failed, ever watching vainly for help; we were watching eagerly for a nation that could not save.
