As The Deer Panteth For The Water
So My Soul Longeth After You
You Alone Are My Heart’s Desire
And I Long To Worship You
You’re My Friend And You Are My Brother
Even Though You Are A King
I Love You More Than Any Other
So Much More Than Anything
You Alone Are My Strength, My Shield
To You Alone May My Spirit Yield
You Alone Are My Heart’s Desire
And I Long To Worship You
I Love You More Than Gold Or Silver,
Only You Can Satisfy.
You Alone Are The Real Joy Giver
And The Apple Of My Eye.
As The Deer Panteth For The Water
So My Soul Longeth After You
You Alone Are My Heart’s Desire
And I Long To Worship You
You Alone Are My Strength, My Shield
To You Alone May My Spirit Yield
You Alone Are My Heart’s Desire
And I Long To Worship You
