My Soul Thirsts for You
Hear
my prayer, O Lord; give ear to my pleas for mercy! In your faithfulness answer
me, in your righteousness!
Enter not into judgment with your servant, for no one living is righteous
before you.
I remember the days of old; I meditate on all that you have done; I ponder the work of your hands. I stretch out my hands to you; my soul thirsts for you like a parched land.
Answer me quickly, O Lord! My spirit fails! Hide not your face from me, lest I be like those who go down to the pit. Let me hear in the morning of your steadfast love, for in you I trust. Make me know the way I should go, for to you I lift up my soul. Deliver me from my enemies, O Lord!
I have fled to you for refuge.
Teach me to do your will, for
you are my God! Let your good Spirit lead me on level ground! For your name's
sake, O Lord, preserve my life!
In your righteousness bring my soul out of trouble! And in your steadfast love
you will cut off my enemies, and you will destroy all the adversaries of my soul, for I am your servant.
