Psalm 63:1–8 | Liturgical Calendar

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.
