AS THE DEER

C G Am E
As the deer panteth for the water,
F G C Am G
So my soul longeth after you.
C G Am
You alone are my heart’s desire.
F G C C G/B
And I long to worship you.

Chorus:
Am F C
You alone are my strength, my shield.
F Dm E
To you alone will my spirit yield.
C G Am
You alone are my heart’s desire
F G C
And I long to worship you.

C G Am E
You're my friend, and You are my brother
F G C Am G
Even though You are a King.
C G Am
I love You more than any other
F G C C G/B
So much more than anything.

C G Am E
I want you more than any other
F G C Am G
Only You can satisfy.
C G Am
You alone are the real joy giver
F G C C G/B
And the apple of my eye.
