God, You are my God; I shall be watching for You; My soul thirsts for You, my flesh yearns for You, In a dry and exhausted land where there is no water. | O God, you are my God, for whom I have been searching earnestly. My soul yearns for you and my body thirsts for you, like the earth when it is parched, arid and without water. |
Because Your favor is better than life, My lips will praise You. So I will bless You as long as I live; I will lift up my hands in Your name. | Your kindness is a greater joy than life itself; thus my lips will speak your praise. I will bless you all my life; with uplifted hands I will call on your name. |
For You have put us to the test, God; You have refined us as silver is refined. | For you, O God, have put us to the test; you have purified us as silver is refined. |

God blesses us, So that all the ends of the earth may fear Him. | May God continue to bless us and be revered to the ends of the earth. |
Sing to God, sing praises to His name; Exalt Him who rides through the deserts, Whose name is the Lord, and be jubilant before Him. A father of the fatherless and a judge for the widows, Is God in His holy dwelling. | Sing to God, sing praise to his name; exalt him who rides upon the clouds. Rejoice in the presence of this God whose name is the Lord. The Father of orphans and the defender of widows: such is God in his holy dwelling place. |
God makes a home for the lonely; He leads out the prisoners into prosperity, Only the rebellious live in parched lands. | He gives a home to those who are forsaken and leads out prisoners amid chants of exultation, while rebels are forced to live in an arid land. |
Blessed be the Lord, who daily bears our burden, The God who is our salvation. Selah | Blessed be the Lord, day after day, the God of our salvation, who carries our burden. Selah |
