AS THE DEER
As the deer pants for the water So my soul longs after You
You alone are my hearts desire And I long to worship You
You alone are my strength my shield
To You alone may my spirit yield
You alone are my hearts 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
I want you more than gold and silver Only You can satisfy
You alone are the real joy giver And the apple of my eye
BLEST BE THE LORD
Blest be the Lord (Blest be the Lord)
Blest be the Lord (Blest be the Lord)
The God of mercy
The God who saves.
I shall not fear (I shall not fear)
The dark of night (The dark of night)
Nor the arrows
That fly by day.
He will release me from the nets of sinful men
He will protect me from their wicked hands
Beneath the shadow of His wings I will rejoice
To find a dwelling place secure
I need not shrink before the terrors of the night
Nor stand alone before the light of day
No harm shall come to me, nor arrow strike me down
No evil settle in my soul
Although a thousand men have fallen by my side
I'll not be shaken with the Lord at hand
His faithful love is all the armour that I need
To wage my battle with my foe
