As the sun is the joy to them that seek for its daybreak So is my joy the Lord:

2Because He is my Sun, and His rays have lifted me up; And His light hath dispelled all darkness from my face.

3In Him I have acquired eyes, And have seen His holy day:

4Ears I have acquired, And I have heard His truth.

5The thought of knowledge I have acquired, And I have been delighted by Him.

6The way of error I have left and I went towards Him, And I have received Salvation from Him abundantly.

7And according to His bounty He hath given to me: And according to His excellent beauty He hath made me.

8I have put on incorruption through His name, And I have put off corruption by His grace.

9Death hath been destroyed before my face; And Sheol hath been abolished by my word.

10And there hath gone up deathless life in the Lord's land; And it hath been made known to His faithful ones; And hath been given without stint to all those that trust in Him. Hallelujah.
