Before the sun is up, my cry for help comes to your ear; my hope is in your words.
Give out your sounds, O corded instruments: the dawn will be awaking with my song.
Take not your true word quite out of my mouth; for I have put my hope in your decisions.
Your worshippers will see me and be glad; because my hope has been in your word.
CAPH My soul is wasted with desire for your salvation: but I have hope in your word.
For you go before him with the blessings of good things: you put a crown of fair gold on his head.
But the Lord will send his mercy in the daytime, and in the night his song will be with me, a prayer to the God of my life.
My voice will come to you in the morning, O Lord; in the morning will I send my prayer to you, and keep watch.
In God will I give praise to his word; in God have I put my hope; I will have no fear of what flesh may do to me.
You are my glory; let the instruments of music be awake; I myself will be awake with the dawn.
But to you did I send up my cry, O Lord; in the morning my prayer came before you.
Let my prayer come before you; give ear to my cry:
In the night the desire of my soul has been for you; early will my spirit be searching for you; for when your punishments come on the earth, the people of the world will get the knowledge of righteousness.
And in the morning, a long time before daylight, he got up and went out to a quiet place, and there he gave himself up to prayer.
