1A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah. 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;
2To see thy power and thy glory, So as I have seen thee in the sanctuary.
3Because thy lovingkindness is better than life, My lips shall praise thee.
4Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name.
5My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; And my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips:
6When I remember thee upon my bed, And meditate on thee in the night watches.
