Psalm 63:1-3
Good News Translation

(A)Longing for God[a]

63 O God, you are my God,
    and I long for you.
My whole being desires you;
    like a dry, worn-out, and waterless land,
    my soul is thirsty for you.
2 Let me see you in the sanctuary;
    let me see how mighty and glorious you are.
3 Your constant love is better than life itself,
    and so I will praise you.
