⁴¹ Let us lift our hearts and hands
    to God in heaven and say,

¹ O Lord, I give my life to you.

² Listen to my prayer for mercy
    as I cry out to you for help,
    as I lift my hands toward your holy sanctuary.

² Accept my prayer as incense offered to you,
    and my upraised hands as an evening offering.

⁶ I lift my hands to you in prayer.
    I thirst for you as parched land thirsts for rain. Interlude

⁷ Come quickly, Lord, and answer me,
    for my depression deepens.
Don’t turn away from me,
    or I will die.
⁸ Let me hear of your unfailing love each morning,
    for I am trusting you.
Show me where to walk,
    for I give myself to you.

⁴ Give me happiness, O Lord,
    for I give myself to you.

⁴ I will praise you as long as I live,
    lifting up my hands to you in prayer.
