• My Soul Thirsts for You

  • 1 O God, You are my God; I shall seek You earnestly; My soul thirsts for You, my flesh yearns for You, In a dry and weary land without water.
  • 2 Thus I have beheld You in the sanctuary, To see Your power and Your glory.
  • 3 Because Your lovingkindness is better than life, My lips will laud You.
  • 4 Thus I will bless You as long as I live; I will lift up my hands in Your name.
  • 5 My soul is satisfied as with fatness and richness, And my mouth offers praises with lips of joyful songs.
  • 6 When I remember You on my bed, I meditate on You in the night watches,
  • 7 For You have been my help, And in the shadow of Your wings I sing for joy.
  • 8 My soul clings to You; Your right hand upholds me.
  • 9 But those who seek my life to destroy it, Will go into the depths of the earth.
  • 10 They will be delivered over to the power of the sword; They will be a portion for foxes.
  • 11 But the king will be glad in God; Everyone who swears by Him will boast, For the mouths of those who speak lies will be closed.
