As the deer pants for the water

Verse 1:

As the deer pants for the water

So my soul longs after you

You alone are my heart's desire

And I long to worship you

Refrain:

You alone are my strength, my shield

To you alone will my spirit yield

You alone are my hearts desire

And I long to worship you

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

Refrain:

You alone are my strength, my shield

To you alone will my spirit yield

You alone are my hearts desire

And I long to worship you

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

Refrain:

You alone are my strength, my shield

To you alone will my spirit yield

You alone are my hearts desire

And I long to worship you
