As The Deer

Words by Martin J. Nystrom


As the deer panteth for the water,
so my soul longs after Thee.
You alone are my heart's desire
and I long to worship Thee.

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.

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.

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.
