O Lord, in the morning you hear my voice; in the morning I prepare a sacrifice for you and watch.
I rise before dawn and cry for help; I hope in your words.
But I, O Lord, cry to you; in the morning my prayer comes before you.
my soul waits for the Lord more than watchmen for the morning, more than watchmen for the morning.
And rising very early in the morning, while it was still dark, he departed and went out to a desolate place, and there he prayed.
Evening and morning and at noon I utter my complaint and moan, and he hears my voice.
My soul yearns for you in the night; my spirit within me earnestly seeks you. For when your judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world learn righteousness.
Answer me, O Lord, for your steadfast love is good; according to your abundant mercy, turn to me.
O my God, I cry by day, but you do not answer, and by night, but I find no rest.
