“Turn us again, O God, and cause thy face to shine; and we shall be saved.”
A refrain request is introduced: "Restore us, O God; let your face shine, that we may be saved!" The invocation of God's face shining forth—a symbol of divine favor and blessing—is connected to restoration and salvation. The refrain structure (which repeats at vv. 7 and 19) suggests this is a liturgical psalm used in worship services addressing national crisis.
