1O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee:
2To see thy power and thy glory,
3Because thy lovingkindness is better than life,
4Thus will I bless thee while I live:
5My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness;
6When I remember thee upon my bed,
7Because thou hast been my help,
8My soul followeth hard after thee:
9But those that seek my soul, to destroy it,
10They shall fall by the sword:
11But the king shall rejoice in God;
