Psalm 63:1-8
Holman Christian Standard Bible
Psalm 63
Praise God Who Satisfies
A Davidic psalm. When he was in the Wilderness of Judah.(A)
1 God, You are my God; I eagerly seek You.
I thirst for You;
my body faints for You
in a land that is dry, desolate, and without water.(B)
2 So I gaze on You in the sanctuary
to see Your strength and Your glory.(C)
3 My lips will glorify You
because Your faithful love is better than life.(D)
4 So I will praise You as long as I live;
at Your name, I will lift up my hands.(E)
5 You satisfy me as with rich food;[a](F)
my mouth will praise You with joyful lips.(G)
6 When I think of You as I lie on my bed,
I meditate on You during the night watches(H)
7 because You are my helper;(I)
I will rejoice in the shadow of Your wings.(J)
8 I follow close to You;
Your right hand holds on to me.(K)
