(A)One thing have I asked of the Lord,
    that will I seek after:
that I may (B)dwell in the house of the Lord
    all the days of my life,
to gaze upon (C)the beauty of the Lord
    and to inquire[a] in his temple.

For he will (D)hide me in his shelter
    in the day of trouble;
he will conceal me under the cover of his tent;
    he will (E)lift me high upon a rock.

And now my (F)head shall be lifted up
    above my enemies all around me,
and I will offer in his tent
    sacrifices with shouts of (G)joy;
(H)I will sing and make melody to the Lord.
