(1) A psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah.

I

(2) O God, you are my God- it is you I seek! For you my body yearns; for you my soul thirsts, In a land parched, lifeless, and without water.

(3) I look to you in santuary to see your power and glory.

(4) For your love is better than life; my lips shall ever praise you!

II

(5) I will bless you as long as I live; I will lift up my hands, calling on your name.

(6) My soul shall be sated as with choice food, with joyous lips my mouth shall praise you!

(7) I think of you upon my bed, I remember you through the watches of the night,

(8) You indeed are my savior, and in the shadow of your wings I shout for joy.

(9) My soul clings fast to you; your right hand upholds me.
