Psalms 62:1-5

¹A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Edom.

²O God, my God, I cry to thee early; My soul has thirsted for thee: How often has my flesh longed after thee, In a barren and trackless and dry land!

³Thus have I appeared before thee in the sanctuary, That I might see thy power and thy glory.

⁴For thy mercy is better than life: My lips shall praise thee.

⁵Thus will I bless thee during my life: I will lift up my hands in thy name.
