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.
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 You
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
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
