Psalm 63 - A 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;

To see thy power and thy glory, so
as I have seen thee in the sanctuary.

Because thy lovingkindness is better
than life, my lips shall praise thee.

Thus will I bless thee while I live:
I will lift up my hands in thy name.

My soul shall be satisfied as with
marrow and fatness; and my mouth

shall praise thee with joyful lips:

When I remember thee upon my bed, and
meditate on thee in the night watches.

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

My soul followeth hard after
thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.

But those that seek my soul,
to destroy it, shall go into

the lower parts of the earth.

They shall fall by the sword:
they shall be a portion for foxes.

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.
