My soul thirst for you

Verse 1

As the deer pants for the water,

My soul longs for You, O Lord.

Thirsting for Your living presence,

I cry out to You, my God.

Where are You, my refuge and my strength?

My tears have been my bread, day and night,

But I will hope in You, my Savior,

And trust in Your love so bright.

Chorus

My soul thirsts for You, O Lord,

My heart calls out, my soul restored.

In Your presence, I find my peace,

In Your arms, my soul’s release.

Verse 2

Why do I mourn and feel so low?

Why is my heart cast down?

I will praise the God of my salvation,

The one who wears the victor’s crown.

Through the storm and through the night,

Your love will lead me on,

I’ll hold on to Your promises,

Until my fears are gone.

Chorus

My soul thirsts for You, O Lord,

My heart calls out, my soul restored.

In Your presence, I find my peace,

In Your arms, my soul’s release.

Verse 3

Deep calls to deep, Your voice so near,

You guide me with Your light.

I will trust, I will not fear,

For You are my delight.

Why, my soul, are you so downcast?

Hope in the Lord, He’s faithful and true.

I will praise Him, my Savior and King,

Forever I’ll worship You.

Chorus

My soul thirsts for You, O Lord,

My heart calls out, my soul restored.

In Your presence, I find my peace,

In Your arms, my soul’s release.

Outro

I’ll hope in You, my God and King,

My soul’s thirst, to You I bring.

In Your love, my soul will sing,

Forevermore, my heart will cling.
