PART OF PSALM LXIV.
Early my God I bless;
My God, for Thee I long;
Thy love is all my song,
While through the wilderness,
A thirsty land, I go,
Where no sweet waters flow.
My God, for Thee I long;
Thy love is all my song,
While through the wilderness,
A thirsty land, I go,
Where no sweet waters flow.
Amid distress and strife
I lift my hands on high,
Thy name to magnify.
Thy love is better than life;
My soul doth hang on Thee,
Thy right hand holdeth me.
I lift my hands on high,
Thy name to magnify.
Thy love is better than life;
My soul doth hang on Thee,
Thy right hand holdeth me.
My soul is satisfied,
E'en as with all good things,
When she Thy praises sings.
Awake, with Thee doth bide;
And sleep beneath the wide
Shade of Thy sheltering wings.
E'en as with all good things,
When she Thy praises sings.
Awake, with Thee doth bide;
And sleep beneath the wide
Shade of Thy sheltering wings.
