1 A psalm of David when he was in the desert of Edom. O God, my God, to thee do I watch at break of day. For thee my soul hath thirsted; for thee my flesh, O how many ways! 2 In a desert land, and where there is no way, and no water: so in the sanctuary have I come before thee, to see thy power and thy glory. 3 For thy mercy is better than lives: thee my lips shall praise. 4 Thus will I bless thee all my life long: and in thy name I will lift up my hands. 5 Let my soul be filled as with marrow and fatness: and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips. 6 If I have remembered thee upon my bed, I will meditate on thee in the morning: 7 because thou hast been my helper. And I will rejoice under the covert of thy wings: Psalms 63:1-7, Douay-Rheims Bible. Public domain.
