Psalm 42:2-4

^{Tools
2}

My soul ^(A)thirsts for God, for the ^(B)living God;
When shall I come and ^(a)^(C)appear before God?

^{Tools

My ^(D)tears have been my food day and night,
While they ^(E)say to me all day long, “Where is your God?”

^{Tools
4}

These things I remember and I ^(F)pour out my soul within me.
For I ^(G)used to go along with the throng and ^(b)lead them in procession to the house of God,
With the voice of ^(H)joy and thanksgiving, a multitude keeping festival.
