As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God.
My soul waiteth for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning: I say, more than they that watch for the morning.
I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord's.
