Oh God, you are my God, I seek you earnestly.
My soul thirsts for you, and my flesh yearns for you.
In a dry, weary land, with no water.
So I gaze upon you in the sanctuary, to behold your power and your glory.
Your love is better than life, so I will praise you.
I sing for joy, I sing for joy, I sing for joy.
So I will bless you as long as I shall live.
I will lift up my hands unto your name.
My soul is satisfied with that, with joyful lips I offer praise.
When upon my bed I think on you, and meditate in the watches of the night.
For you have been my help, and in the shadow of your wings.
I sing for joy, I sing for joy, I sing for joy.
Therefore my soul clings to you, and your right hand upholds me.
While those who seek my life sink into the depths of the earth.
They become like the prey of the jackals, but the king will rejoice in God.
And all who swear by him will glory, as lying lips are stopped.
I sing for joy, I sing for joy, I sing for joy.
