| [A Psalm of David, when he was in the Wilderness of Judah. ] | Longing for God. Psalm 63(v62) | ||
| O God, thou art my God, I seek thee, my soul thirsts for thee; my flesh faints for thee, as in a dry and weary land where no water is. | |||
| So I have looked upon thee in the sanctuary, beholding thy power and glory. | |||
| Because thy steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise thee. | |||
| So I will bless thee as long as I live; I will lift up my hands and call on thy name. | |||
| My soul is feasted as with marrow and fat, and my mouth praises thee with joyful lips, | |||
| when I think of thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the watches of the night; | |||
| for thou hast been my help, and in the shadow of thy wings I sing for joy. | |||
| My soul clings to thee; thy right hand upholds me. | |||
| But those who seek to destroy my life shall go down into the depths of the earth; | |||
| they shall be given over to the power of the sword, they shall be prey for jackals. | |||
| But the king shall rejoice in God; all who swear by him shall glory; for the mouths of liars will be stopped. | |||
