The Thirsting Soul Satisfied in God.

¹ O God, ^(C1)You are my God; with deepest longing I will seek You;
My ^(F1)soul my life, my very self ^(C2)thirsts for You, my flesh longs and sighs for You,
In a ^(C3)dry and weary land where there is no water.

² So I have ^(C1)gazed upon You in the sanctuary,
To see Your power and Your glory. ^(VR1)

³ Because Your ^(C1)lovingkindness is better than life,
My lips shall praise You.

⁴ So will I bless You ^(C1)as long as I live;
I will ^(C2)lift up my hands in Your name.

⁵ My ^(F1)soul my life, my very self is ^(C1)satisfied as with marrow and fatness,
And my mouth offers ^(C2)praises to You with joyful lips.

⁶ When I remember You ^(C1)on my bed,
I meditate and thoughtfully focus on You in the ^(C2)night watches,

⁷ For ^(C1)You have been my help,
And in the ^(C2)shadow of Your wings where I am always protected I sing for joy.

⁸ My ^(F1)soul my life, my very self ^(C1)clings to You;
Your ^(C2)right hand upholds me.

⁹ But those who ^(C1)seek my life to destroy it
Will be destroyed and go into the ^(C2)depths of the earth into the underworld.

¹⁰ They will be ^(C1)given over to the power of the sword;
They will be a ^(C2)prey for foxes.

¹¹ But the ^(C1)king will rejoice in God;
Everyone who ^(C2)swears by Him honoring the true God, acknowledging His authority and majesty will glory,
For the ^(C3)mouths of those who speak lies will be stopped.
