Saturday Sing ‘N Wail

It’s Saturday again, so it is time for our weekly favorite song lyric. This song was chosen because someone else mentioned they sang it recently at their church. Though, I do have to admit, it was one of my favorites.

As the Deer

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.

Chorus:
You alone are my strength, my shield.
To you alone may my spirit yield.
You alone are my hearts 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.
