As the deer longs for the water brooks
I long for Him
O my soul, why are you troubled within me?
For God is our refuge
Our fortress and strength
Hope in Him
I shall again praise His name

Though the fields give no food
Oh, I still choose
To always follow Him
Though the sun disappear
I won't fear
For He's my strength and shield

In a dry, weary land
I thirst for Him
I will seek Him as long as I live
For God is our stronghold
Our tower of strength
Trust in Him
I shall again praise His name

Though the mountains should quake
And fall to the sea
I will run to Him
Though the battle still rages
I proclaim
That He's my strength and shield
