Psalm 63

Deus, Deus meus
1
O God, you are my God; eagerly I seek you; *
my soul thirsts for you, my flesh faints for you,
as in a barren and dry land where there is no water.
2
Therefore I have gazed upon you in your holy place, *
that I might behold your power and your glory.
3
For your loving-kindness is better than life itself; *
my lips shall give you praise.
4
So will I bless you as long as I live *
and lift up my hands in your Name.
5
My soul is content, as with marrow and fatness, *
and my mouth praises you with joyful lips,
6
When I remember you upon my bed, *
and meditate on you in the night watches.
7
For you have been my helper, *
and under the shadow of your wings I will rejoice.
8
My soul clings to you; *
your right hand holds me fast.
