FROM ODE 14 OF THE ODES OF SOLOMON
As the eyes of a son to his father,
so my eyes turn to you, O Lord, at all times,
for with you are my consolation and joy.
Do not turn your mercy from me, O Lord,
nor your kindness,
but stretch out your right hand,
and be my guide to the end.
Care for me, save me from evil,
and let your gentleness and love be with me.
Teach me to sing of truth,
that I may engender fruit in you.
Open the harp of your holy spirit
so I may praise you, Lord, with all its notes.
From your sea of mercy, help me,
help me in my hour of need.
