Father, I long for thee. When I am weak and weary and my day is with great labour, I look for thee, my strength, my hope, my rest upon the hill of glory, my heavenly peace. My beauty is thee, O LORD. I am the imperfection of sin but thou art perfect without sin. I hope not in vain; for I hope in the LORD. O God be not far from me today. But hide your face and blot out my sins. Show me your mercy and cause me to cleave to your compassion. Thou art my strength and my salvation. And I know no other who can save. Thou art my hope, my life, and my glory. The lifting up of your name is not cast down to the pit. Thou art exalted above all. Thou art my glory and I cannot deny you. I have made up my mind to honour you all the days of my life. Be my God and forsake me not in the trying times. When evil has risen up before me, show me favour. When I call out thy name, O God, be quick to come. Thou art faithful; for I know the works of thy hand. I speak not without knowledge. But I speak the praise of the God who shew himself boldly before me. Not once have you shame me when I call out your name in the midst of the heathen. O LORD my God, let thy name glory; for I cannot wait anymore. The joys of my heart swell up to great heights. Thy exaltation is without limits. I praise thy name because thy name is glory. In all the heavens and the earth thou art the everlasting God. O my God, let thy beauty blossom in all the heavens. Let my praise be a sweet savour before thee. O yea, let this be a perpetual joy in thy dwelling place. O Father, I am thy humble servant who shall exalt thy name and glory in the LORD my God. Thy name is kept on High and esteemed without measure. Thou art my everlasting glory. Thou art whom I obliged, reverence, and honour. Thou art my God whom I run to. Blessed is thy hand that keeps me, the hand that guides my path. Blessed be thy name, forever and ever!
