How precious, O God, is Your lovingkindness!
The children of man find protection under the shadow of Your wings.
They feast on the abundance of Your house;
You give them to drink of the river of Your delights.
For with You is the source of all life,

and because of Your light we see the light.

(Psalm 36:7-9)
