This prayer says the thing plainly and asks God to turn toward the person praying it.
Psalm 25 is a prayer of David asking God for attention, guidance and mercy. In these two verses the speaker describes his own condition and asks God to look at him. The psalm does not resolve the trouble here; it keeps asking.
Read it in full, with the verses on either side, on the Psalm 25:16-17 page.
