I place my hope in you;
you who are my Lord and master,
I come before you,
early in the morning, I search your word, I listen for your voice
I savour your
sweetness, you who are the delight of my heart
When shall I come to
meet you who is the King of my heart?
When I make time for
everyone but you
When everything else
seems more important than you do
When my restless heart
runs to and fro seeking rest apart from you
Draw me to you, you who
are my strength and my song
Teach me Lord, to
number my days aright that I may gain a heart of wisdom
