Psalm 121:1-2 - I lift up my eyes to the hills—where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.
This is part of a psalm of ascent. A wikipedia article on the psalms of ascent said that these psalms were likely sung as the people ascended to Jerusalem on the three pilgrim festivals (Deut 16:16) or by the priests as they ascended the steps into the Temple in Jerusalem.
In both of these cases, these psalms would certainly help the speaker enter into closer relationship with God or reflection on His character.
