As The Deer Panteth For The Waters Lyrics By Shane
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 you
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
You’re my friend and you are my brother
Even though you are a king of kings
And I love you more than any other
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 you
