Text: | O Lord, My God |
1 O Lord, my God, most earnestly
My heart would seek Your face,
Within Your holy house once more
To see Your glorious grace.
Apart from You I long and thirst,
And naught can satisfy;
I wander in a desert land
Where all the streams are dry.
2 The loving-kindness of my God
Is more than life to me;
So I will bless You while I live
And lift my prayer to Thee.
In Thee my soul is satisfied,
My darkness turns to light,
And joyful meditations fill
The watches of the night.
3 My Savior, 'neath Your shelt'ring wings
My soul delights to dwell;
Still closer to Your side I press,
For near Thee all is well.
My soul shall conquer ev'ry foe,
Upheld by Your own hand;
Your people shall rejoice in God,
Your saints in glory stand.
