1.1 KiB
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.
