O God, you are my God, earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you, my body longs for you, in a dry and weary land where there is no water.
My soul, my very being cannot survive without you, O Lord. I am nothing without you, O Lord. I am lost, dry, blind and died without you, O Lord. My soul lone for your embrace—you are the Lover of my soul—body, mind and emotions.
I have seen you in the sanctuary and beheld your power and your glory.
O my soul, praise the one I love, the living God because His Holy Spirit in me has testified of His greatness. For I am your sanctuary and you dwell within me—for I seen your purifying power in Glory in me.
Because your love is better than life, my lips will glorify you.
Your Love, O, your Love, is everlasting and ever present and I will sing of your Love and glorify you forever.
I will praise you as long as I live, and in your name I will lift up my hands.
Let my lips never stop glorifying your Holy Name, for your greatness have reached beyond the stars and treasures in my soul and you have taken my sin away—thank you for such Love.
My soul will be satisfied as with the richest of foods; with singing lips my mouth will praise you.
Your manna is better, O Lord, what is a full belly and an empty soul—nothing.
On my bed I remember you; I think of you through the watches of the night.
I cannot sleep without thinking of you—you are always present in my thoughts during the darkness of the night and the darkest hours of my soul.
Because you are my help, I sing in the shadow of your wings.
You are my ALL, you are my Counselor and your Glory protects me. I do not need anything else, but you.
My soul clings to you; your right hand upholds me.
When I am in need, you are there; when I have no need, you are there—without you I am nothing. O my Love—Lover of my soul, save me from myself; my selfish will that is contrary to your will for if your Holy Spirit leaves me, I will surely die and be desolate and alone.
They who seek my life will be destroyed; they will go down to the depths of the earth.
Hell was made for your enemy, O Lord, not for mankind, but now mankind is found in hell for their disobedience against you. O lover of my soul, help me stay righteous before your eyes. I saw when the devourer came to claim my soul and I stood firm with your authority given to me by you, O Lord. O soul of mine, never stop praising Him whom formed you with Loving Hands in my loving mother’s womb. O soul of mine, surrender to His Holy will.
They will be given over to the sword and become food for jackals.
Your enemies, O Lord, and your disobedient children who refused to repent from the heart will perish. O Lord, your Word which is a double edged sword will penetrate the deepest secret places of the hearts and will make the sins known. O soul of mine, give up your secrets and place them in the purifiers Holy Hands and He will make you whole. O soul of mine, surrender to the one I love, to the Father, to His Son—my Savior and to His Holy Spirit—my Counselor and Guide on my journey of purification.
But the king will rejoice in God; all who swear by God’s name will praise him, while the mouths of liars will be silenced.
O soul of mine, rejoice and sing new praises to the One Most High, for He has promised to save me from my enemies—His enemies and from myself. O soul of mine, praise the one I love and He will protect me from the fiery darts and lies of the enemy against my soul. Amen
