AS THE DEER PANTS FOR THE WATER (PSALM 42)
4 -4 5 -5 5 -4 5 6
As the deer pants for the water,
4 -4 5 -5 5 4 4
So my soul pants after Thee.
4 -4 5 -5 5 -4 5 6
How I thirst for living water.
4 -4 5 -5 5 4 4
How much longer will it be?
-7 -6 -7 -6 6
Tears have been my food
-5 6 -6 6
Both day and night.
-7 -6 -7 -6 6 -5 6
Mem-'ries yearn of better days.
-7 -6 -7 -6 6 -5 6-6 6
All the times of joy, thanksgiving
-5 5 -5 5 -4 4 -4
Seem so very far away.Verse 2:
Deep calls to still deeper waters:
Waves and breakers sweep o'er me.
Am I now to be forgotten?
Left in mortal agony?
Why so downcast, O my troubled soul?
Put your hope in God and prayer.
Ever shall God my direction be.
Ever am I in God's care!Verse 3:
4 -4 5 -5 5 -4 5 6
Loving kindness through the daytime.
4 4 -4 5 -5 5 4 4
My Lord: my hope in times of strife.
4 4 -4 5 -5 5 -4 5 6
At night, Your song shall e'er be with me:
4 4 -4 -4 5 -5 5 4 4
A prayer unto my God, my life!
