Such a beautiful song!

Lyrics:
As the deer panteth for the water
So my soul longeth after thee
You alone are my hearts 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 thank 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.

I do not claim ownership of this song.

  • Lord, I am lost. Show me how...

  • song like these  are worth more than gold

  • I used to go to Catholic school, for all my elementary years. This by far was my favorite song we ever sang in choir. I never got tired of it and my heart was lifted so high when we sang it. I completely forgot about this song until I heard a piano version on piano and realized... it's this song again! So now I can't stop listening to it again. It brings back such good memories and just keeps me close to God. I want this to be played at my funeral.

  • the first line is sooooooooo incredible (first 2 lines)

  • Whenever I hear this in church I cry. I remember my childhood. :')

  • My customer won my music agent services for free, in a contest. She insisted on this song as an extra. I initially refused, as it was an extra charge. THANK GOD I said yes. My non-believer harpist Miya ended up leading worship as EVERYONE sang the song with the bride and groom. When Miya sat down, she said, "this is WEIRD! Why do I feel like God wanted this to happen and I do not even believe in God?" I answered, "Miya - He DID want exactly that, trust me! You are a gift from God today!" :)
