Why Are You Cast Down, O My Soul?

To the choirmaster. A Maskil

1 cAs a deer pants for flowing streams,
so pants my soul for you, O God.
2 dMy soul thirsts for God,
for ethe living God.
When shall I come and fappear before God?
Revocalization yields  and see the face of God

3 hMy tears have been my food
day and night,
iwhile they say to me all the day long,
“Where is your God?”

Psalms 63:1-3

My Soul Thirsts for You

A Psalm of David, jwhen he was in the wilderness of Judah.

1 O God, you are my God; kearnestly I seek you;
lmy soul thirsts for you;
my flesh faints for you,
as in ma dry and weary land where there is no water.
2So I have looked upon you in the sanctuary,
beholding nyour power and glory.
3Because your osteadfast love is better than life,
my lips will praise you.

aloud to God, and he will hear me.
2 sIn the day of my trouble I seek the Lord;
in tthe night my uhand is stretched out without wearying;
my soul vrefuses to be comforted.
3When I remember God, I wmoan;
when I meditate, my spirit faints.  Selah
