Psalms 63:1-7 ▼

1 A Psalm of David. When he was in the wilderness of Judah. 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.
