I seek You

O God, you are my God; I earnestly search for you. My soul thirsts for you; my whole body longs for you in this parched and weary land where there is no water. 1

As the deer longs for streams of water, so I long for you, O God. 2 In the night I search for you; in the morning I earnestly seek you. 3

Your unfailing love is better than life itself! 4 Every good thing I have comes from you. 5 I desire you more than anything on earth. 6

How precious are your thoughts about me, O God. 7 How sweet your words taste to me; they are sweeter than honey. 8

And my heart responds, “LORD, I am coming.” 9 You granting me the joy of your presence. 10

Let me know your ways so I may understand you more fully. 11 Show me your glorious presence. 12
