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 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 Why should my heart be lonely Why should the shadows come His eye is on the sparrow And I know He watches me Why should my heart be lonely Why should the shadows come His eye is on the sparrow And I know He watches me His eye is on the sparrow And I know He watches me
