LORD THEE MY GOD I‟LL EARLY SEEK

Lord, Thee my God, I‟ll early seek:

My soul doth thirst for Thee;

My flesh longs in a dry parched land,

Wherein no waters be:

That I Thy power may behold,

And brightness of Thy face,

As I have seen Thee heretofore

Within Thy Holy place.

Since better is Thy love than life,

My lips Thee praise shall give.

I in Thy name will lift my hands,

And bless Thee while I live.

Even as with marrow and with fat

My soul shall filled be;

Then shall my mouth with joyful lips

Sing praises unto Thee:

When I do Thee upon my bed

Remember with delight,

And when on Thee I meditate

In watches of the night.

In shadow of Thy wings I‟ll joy,

For Thou mine help hast been.

My soul Thee follows hard; and me

Thy right hand doth sustain. ......
