"Turn us again, O God of hosts; And cause thy face to shine, and we shall be saved." — Psalms 80:7 (ASV)
Turn us again, O God of hosts ... - This verse is the same as (Psalms 80:3), except that here the appeal is to the “God of hosts;” there, it is simply to “God.” This indicates greater earnestness; a deeper sense of the need of the interposition of God, indicated by the reference to his attribute as the leader of hosts or armies, and therefore able to save them.
