Psalm 42:1-5

¹  As a deer pants for flowing streams, 

so pants my soul for you, O God. 

²  My soul thirsts for God, 

for the living God. 

When shall I come and appear before God? 

³  My tears have been my food 

day and night, 

while they say to me all the day long, 

“Where is your God?” 

⁴  These things I remember, 

as I pour out my soul: 

how I would go with the throng 

and lead them in procession to the house of God 

with glad shouts and songs of praise, 

a multitude keeping festival. 

⁵  Why are you cast down, O my soul, 

and why are you in turmoil within me? 

Hope in God; for I shall again praise him, 

my salvation
