Text:
Early, O Lord, my fainting soul
Thy mercy does implore;
No traveller in desert lands
Can thirst for water more.
I long to appear as I was wont,
Within thy holy place,
Thy pow'r and glory to behold,
And to partake thy grace.
For life itself without thy love
No relish can afford;
No other joys can equal this:
To serve and praise the Lord.
I'll therefore make my pray'rs to thee,
And bless thee whilst I live;
This, like the choicest dainties, will
Both food and pleasure give.
When others sleep, my wakeful thoughts
Present thee to my mind;
And in the night I think how good
My God has been and kind.
Since thou alone hast been my help,
To thee alone I fly;
And on thy watchful providence
With cheerfulness rely.
Dangers, whilst thou art near to me,
Do threaten me in vain,
When I keep close to God, his care
And pow'r will me sustain.
