o god, you are my god; earnestly i seek you; my soul thirsts ......my soul thirsts for you; my flesh...

Psalm 63

1 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. 2 So I have looked upon you in the sanctuary,

beholding your power and glory. 3 Because your steadfast love is better than life,

my lips will praise you. …

Psalm 63

4 So I will bless you as long as I live;in your name I will lift up my hands.

5 My soul will be satisfied as with fat and rich food,and my mouth will praise you with joyful lips,

6 when I remember you upon my bed,and meditate on you in the watches of the night;

7 for you have been my help,and in the shadow of your wings I will sing for joy. …

Psalm 63

8 My soul clings to you; your right hand upholds me.

9 But those who seek to destroy my life shall go down into the depths of the earth;

10 they shall be given over to the power of the sword;they shall be a portion for jackals. …

Psalm 63

11 But the king shall rejoice in God; all who swear by him shall exult,

for the mouths of liars will be stopped.

Psalm 63: 1-3

1 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. 2 So I have looked upon you in the sanctuary,

beholding your power and glory. 3 Because your steadfast love is better than life,

my lips will praise you.

Earnestly: to seek first, to break forth,

to chase after somethingas most important

Psalm 63:3

Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you.

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

"We've got some difficult days ahead. But it doesn't matter with me now. Because I've been to the

mountaintop. And I don't mind. Like anybody, I would like to live a long life. Longevity has its place. But I'm not concerned about that now. I just want to do God's will. And He's allowed me to go up to the mountain.

And I've looked over. And I've seen the promised land. I may not get there with you. …

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

But I want you to know tonight, that we, as a people will get to the promised land. And I'm happy,

tonight. I'm not worried about anything. I'm not fearing any man. Mine eyes have seen the glory of

the coming of the Lord."
