Year A: Twenty-Second Sunday in Ordinary Time

[Chorus]
F Gm7 F Bb C7 F
My soul is thirsting for You, O Lord my God.

[Verse 1]
Dm C
O God, You are my God whom I seek;
Gm C
For You my flesh pines and my soul thirsts
Dm C
Like the earth, parched,
Gm C
Lifeless and without water.

[Verse 2]
Dm C
Thus have I gazed toward You in the sanctuary
Gm C
To see your power and Your glory,
Dm C
For Your kindness is a greater good than life;
Gm C
My lips shall glorify You.

[Verse 3]
Dm C
Thus will I bless You while I live;
Gm C
Lifting up my hands, I will call upon Your name.
Dm C
As with the riches of a banquet shall my soul be satisfied,
Gm C
And with exultant lips my mouth shall praise You.

[Verse 4]
Dm C
You are my help,
Gm C
And in the shadow of your wings I shout for joy.
Dm C
My soul clings fast to You;
Gm C
Your right hand upholds me.
