Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. Be wretched and mourn and weep. Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom. Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will exalt you.
I love those who love me, and those who seek me diligently find me.
Seek the Lord and his strength; seek his presence continually! Remember the wondrous works that he has done, his miracles and the judgments he uttered,
In my distress I called upon the Lord; to my God I cried for help. From his temple he heard my voice, and my cry to him reached his ears.
Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will hear you. And you will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all your heart.
As a deer pants for flowing streams, so pants my soul for you, O God. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When shall I come and appear before God? Deep calls to deep at the roar of your waterfalls; all your breakers and your waves have gone over me. The Lord commands His steadfast love, and at night His song is with me, a prayer to the God of my life.
On the day I called, you answered me; my strength of soul you increased.
The Lord is near to all who call on Him, to all who call on him in truth.
Hear my cry, O God, listen to my prayer; from the end of the earth I call to you when my heart is faint. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I for God alone, O my soul, wait in silence, for my hope is from him.
All that the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never cast out.
The Spirit and the Bride say, “Come.” And let the one who hears say, “Come.” And let the one who is thirsty come; let the one who desires take the water of life without price.
