O God, you are my God alone; with eagerness I seek your face. My soul and body thirst for you, as in a dry and weary place. I’ve seen you in your holy place; your pow’r and glory held my gaze. Your love is better far than life, and thus my lips will sing your praise. I bless you, Lord, throughout my life and raise my hands to you in prayer. My joyful lips will sing your praise; my soul is fed with richest fare. I lie awake upon my bed, rememb’ring you before it’s light; on you, my God, I meditate, throughout the watches of the night. For you have been my help, O God; I sing for joy beneath your wings. Your right hand holds and strengthens me; to you my soul for safety clings. But those who seek to kill my soul to depths of earth shall fall away; a sword of pow’r will bring them down, and they shall be the jackal’s prey. The king will then rejoice in God, and all who swear by him exult; but God will stop the liars’ mouths, the ones who utter what is false.
