AS THE DEER PANTS FOR THE WATER (PSALM 42) 

5  -5   6    -6    6  -5   6 7
As the deer pants for the water,
5  -5  6    -6   6 5    5
So my soul pants after Thee.
 5 -5   6    -6   6 -5   6 7
How I thirst for living water.
 5   -5   6 -6   6   5  5
How much longer will it be? 
 -8    -7   -8  -7  7
Tears have been my food 
 -6   7  -7    7
Both day and night.
-8    -7   -8   -7  7 -6   7
Mem-'ries yearn of better days.
-8  -7   -8   -7  7    -6  7-7 7
All the times of joy, thanksgiving
 -6  6  -6 6 -5  5 -5
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:
 5 -5   6  -6      6    -5   6  7
Loving kindness through the daytime.
5   5    -5  6   -6   6   5    5
My Lord: my hope in times of strife.
5    5    -5    6    -6    6   -5  6   7
At night, Your song shall e'er be with me:
5  5 -5  -5 6 -6  6   5   5
A prayer unto my God, my life!
