John Owen on Psalm 130

Verse 6
"Yea, in the performance and discharge of this duty, my soul is intent upon Thee, and in its whole frame turned towards Thee, and that with such diligence and watchfulness in looking out after every way and means of Thy appearance, of the manifestation of Thyself, and coming unto me, that I excel therein those who, with longing desire, heedfulness, and earnest expectation, do wait and watch for the appearance of the morning; and that either that they may rest from their night watches, or have light for the duties of Thy worship in the temple, which they are most delighted in."

The Works of John Owen, Vol. 6 (p.328)
