Daily Scripture Reading for February 8

Psalm 63

¹O God, you are my God, I seek you, my soul thirsts for you; my flesh faints for you, as in a dry and weary land where there is no water.
²So I have looked upon you in the sanctuary, beholding your power and glory.
³Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you.
⁴So I will bless you as long as I live; I will lift up my hands and call on your name.
⁵My soul is satisfied as with a rich feast, and my mouth praises you with joyful lips
⁶when I think of you on my bed, and meditate on you in the watches of the night;
⁷for you have been my help, and in the shadow of your wings I sing for joy.
⁸My soul clings to you; your right hand upholds me.
