1. As the deer panteth for the water,
So my soul longeth after Thee,
You alone are my heart’s desire,
And I long to worship Thee.
2. 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.
3. I want You more than gold or silver,
Only You can satisfy,
You alone are the real joy giver,
And the apple of my eye.
Chorus: 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 Thee.
