¶Lyrics / Text

[full:] O God, thou art my God: early will I seek thee. [verse:] My soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh also longeth after thee in a barren and dry land where no water is. [full:] Thus have I looked for thee in holiness: that I might behold thy power and glory. [verse:] For thy loving-kindness is better than the life itself: my lips shall praise thee. [full:] As long as I live will I magnify thee on this manner: and lift up my hands in thy Name. Because thou hast been my helper: therefore under the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice. Halelujah.
