1. O God, you are my God.At dawn I search for you.My soul thirsts for you.My body longs for youin a dry, parched land where there is no water.
2. So I look for you in the holy placeto see your power and your glory.
3. My lips will praise youbecause your mercy is better than life ⌊itself⌋.
4. So I will thank you as long as I live.I will lift up my hands ⌊to pray⌋ in your name.
5. You satisfy my soul with the richest foods.My mouth will sing ⌊your⌋ praise with joyful lips.
6. As I lie on my bed, I remember you.Through the long hours of the night, I think about you.
7. You have been my help.In the shadow of your wings, I sing joyfully.
8. My soul clings to you.Your right hand supports me.
9. But those who try to destroy my lifewill go into the depths of the earth.
