The Book of Psalms 63

Text size

1 O God thou art my God early will I seek thee my soul thirsteth for thee my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land where no water is ⚑

2 To see thy power and thy glory so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary ⚑

3 Because thy lovingkindness is better than life my lips shall praise thee ⚑

4 Thus will I bless thee while I live I will lift up my hands in thy name ⚑

5 My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips ⚑

6 When I remember thee upon my bed and meditate on thee in the night watches ⚑

7 Because thou hast been my help therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice ⚑

8 My soul followeth hard after thee thy right hand upholdeth me ⚑

9 But those that seek my soul to destroy it shall go into the lower parts of the earth ⚑

10 They shall fall by the sword they shall be a portion for foxes ⚑

11 But the king shall rejoice in God every one that sweareth by him shall glory but the mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped ⚑
