Default how to wire in lift pump

Im not sure where to put this but i have a 2001 half ton that has a 91 cummins in it so im trying to find out how i should wire the lift pump in the tank to send fuel to my lift pump on the cummins. It just takes 12v to turn it on but i dont want to burn the pump up. so any help would be a big help to me just to know where to tie it in.

there should be a stock relay within the existing system that ran the original fuel pump...i would think you could use that to run the lift pump

so then through the fuse block, find a circut that only has power with the key on...run the pump off a relay with power off the battery, then use that key on circut to activate the relay...problem solved....
