“You alone are my heart’s desire and I long to worship You.”

Psalm 42:1-5

{To the chief Musician, Maschil, for the sons of Korah.} As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God.

My soul thirsteth for God, for the living God: when shall I come and appear before God?

My tears have been my meat day and night, while they continually say unto me, Where is thy God?

When I remember these things, I pour out my soul in me: for I had gone with the multitude, I went with them to the house of God, with the voice of joy and praise, with a multitude that kept holyday.

Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted in me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him for the help of his countenance.

KJV

As the Deer

As the deer panteth for the water
So my soul longeth after You
You alone are my hearts desire
And I long to worship You

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 You

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’re my friend and You’re my brother
Even though you are a King
I love You more than any other
So much more than anything
