As The Deer
St. Gerard's Choir Hymn Page
As the deer panted for the water
so my soul longeth after Thee;
You alone are my heart's 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 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 Thee.

I want You more than gold and silver
Only You can satisfy.
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.
