I. Original text and translations may be found at Psalm 42.
As pants the hart for cooling streams, so longs my soul for thee, O God.
Tears are my daily food: while thus they say, where is now thy God?
Now when I think thereupon, I pour out my heart by myself:
for I went with the multitude, and brought them out into the house of God.
In the voice of praise and thanksgiving: among such as keep holy day.
Why so full of grief, O my soul: why so disquieted within me?
Put thy trust in God: for I will praise him.
