1. As the deer longs for streams of water,so I long for you, O God.
2. I thirst for God, the living God.When can I go and stand before him?
3. Day and night I have only tears for food,while my enemies continually taunt me, saying,“Where is this God of yours?”
4. My heart is breakingas I remember how it used to be:I walked among the crowds of worshipers,leading a great procession to the house of God,singing for joy and giving thanksamid the sound of a great celebration!
5. Why am I discouraged?Why is my heart so sad?I will put my hope in God!I will praise him again—my Savior and
6. my God! Now I am deeply discouraged,but I will remember you—even from distant Mount Hermon, the source of the Jordan,from the land of Mount Mizar.
