Psalms 63:1,3-11
[1]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.
[3]Your constant love is better than life itself, and so I will praise you.
[4]I will give you thanks as long as I live; I will raise my hands to you in prayer.
[5]My soul will feast and be satisfied, and I will sing glad songs of praise to you.
[6]As I lie in bed, I remember you; all night long I think of you,
[7]because you have always been my help. In the shadow of your wings I sing for joy.
[8]I cling to you, and your hand keeps me safe.
[9]Those who are trying to kill me will go down into the world of the dead.
[10]They will be killed in battle, and their bodies eaten by wolves.
[11]Because God gives him victory, the king will rejoice. Those who make promises in God’s name will praise him, but the mouths of liars will be shut.
