Martin Nystrom, 1984
Based on Psalm 42
[Key: Bb]

 

Verse 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!
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.

 

Verse 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.
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!

 

Verse 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.
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!
