4 While thou continuest me in life, Thus will I [daily] speak thy praise; In worshipping thy holy name My [heart and] hands I will up raise.
5 With thy fat-sweet delights my soul Shall [fed and] satisfied be; My cheerful heart with joyful lips Shall offer [daily] praise to thee.
5 With thy fat-sweet delights my soul Shall [fed and] satisfied be; My chearful heart with joyful lips Shall offer [daily] praise to thee.
6 When on my quiet bed I thee [Seek and] remember with delight; And when on thee I meditate In [silent] watches of the night.
7 Because to me in all distress Thy [helping] hand still succour brings, Therefore my soul shall still rejoice Under thy [safe and] covering wings.
