Psalm 63: How to Pray When You're in the Wilderness


Listen Later

Psalm 63--A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah.--O God, you are my God- earnestly I seek you-- my soul thirsts for you--my flesh faints for you,- as in a dry and weary land where there is no water.-So I have looked upon you in the sanctuary,- beholding your power and glory.-Because your steadfast love is better than life,- my lips will praise you.-So I will bless you as long as I live-- in your name I will lift up my hands.-My soul will be satisfied as with fat and rich food,- and my mouth will praise you with joyful lips,-when I remember you upon my bed,- and meditate on you in the watches of the night--for you have been my help,- and in the shadow of your wings I will sing for joy.-My soul clings to you-- your right hand upholds me.-But those who seek to destroy my life- shall go down into the depths of the earth--they shall be given over to the power of the sword-- they shall be a portion for jackals.-But the king shall rejoice in God-- all who swear by him shall exult,- for the mouths of liars will be stopped.
