At dawn I seek You, my rock and my fortress


My morning and evening prayers I lay before You


Before Your greatness I stand in fright


for Your eyes can see into the thoughts of my heart


What is this that the heart and tongue can


bring about, and what is the strength of my spirit within me?

Behold the singing of man will be pleasant to You, therefore

I thank You while the soul of God is within me

 

Solomon Ibn Gabirol
