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. 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 Thee. I want You more than gold. I want You more than gold or silver. Only You can satisfy me. You alone are the real joy-giver and the apple of my eye. 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 Thee. This the men sing, You're my friend. You're my friend and You are my brother even though You are a fiend. The ladies sing. I want You more than gold. The others so much more than anything. 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 Thee. And I long to worship Thee. Lord, I long to worship Thee. Oh, I long to worship Thee.
