Psalm
63

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

1
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;

2
To see thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary.

3
Because thy lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee.

4
Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name.

5
My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall
praise thee with joyful lips:

6
When I remember thee upon my bed, and meditate on thee in the night watches.

7
Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.

8
My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.

9
But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the lower parts of
the earth.

10
They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion for foxes.

11
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.
