I rise before dawn and cry for help. I put my hope in your words.
Wake up, harp and lyre! I will wake up the dawn.
Don't snatch the word of truth out of my mouth, for I put my hope in your ordinances.
Those who fear you will see me and be glad, because I have put my hope in your word.
My soul faints for your yeshu`ah. I hope in your word.
For you meet him with the blessings of goodness. You set a crown of fine gold on his head.
The LORD will command his loving kindness in the daytime. In the night his song shall be with me: a prayer to the God of my life.
LORD, in the morning you shall hear my voice. In the morning I will lay my requests before you, and will watch expectantly.
In God, I praise his word. In God, I put my trust. I will not be afraid. What can flesh do to me?
Wake up, my glory! Wake up, psaltery and harp! I will wake up the dawn.
But to you, LORD, I have cried. In the morning, my prayer comes before you.
Let my prayer enter into your presence. Turn your ear to my cry.
With my soul have I desired you in the night. Yes, with my spirit within me will I seek you earnestly; for when your judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness.
