Psalm 63 O God, You Are My God
1. O God, You are my God;
I seek You eagerly;
My soul and body thirst for You
In barren lands and dry.
2. Therefore I gazed on You
Within Your holy place,
That I might look upon Your power,
The glory of Your face.
3. Your love is more than life;
My lips shall give You praise;
I lift my hands up in Your name
And bless You all my days.
4. My soul is well content,
My mouth shall give You praise
When I remember You at night
And ponder all Your ways.
5. Your wings have sheltered me,
My helper in the past;
My soul, Lord, clings to You alone,
Your right hand holds me fast.
