If you seek Him [inquiring for and of Him and requiring Him as your first and vital necessity] He will let you find Him; but if you abandon (turn away from) Him, He will reject you forever.

Because You cover and shelter them,
Let those who love Your name be joyful and exult in You.

In a corner of a land of darkness;

Declaring things that are upright.

Call on Him [for salvation] while He is near.
