As a deer in want of water,so I long for you, O Lord.
All my heart and being falter,thirsting for your living word.
When shall I behold your face?
When shall I receive your grace?
When shall I, your praises voicing,
come before you with rejoicing?
[Sing to the Lord 42]

2. Bitter tears of lamentationare my food by night and day.
In my deep humiliation“Where is now your God?” they say.
When my sorrows weigh on me,
then I bring to memoryhow with throngs I would assemble,
shouting praises in your temple.

3. O my soul, why are you grieving,
why disquieted in me?
Put your hope in God, believinghe will still your refuge be.
I again shall praise his gracefor the comfort of his face;
he will show his help and favourfor he is my God and Saviour.

4. From the land beyond the Jordan,
in my grief I think of you;
from the foothills of Mount HermonI will still remember you.
As the waters plunge and leap,
stormy troubles o’er me sweep.
Day and night God’s song is with meas a prayer to him who loves me.

5. I will say to God, my fortress,
“Why have you forgotten me?
Why must I proceed in sadness,
hounded by the enemy?”
Their rebukes and scoffing wordspierce my bones like pointed swords,
as they say with proud defiance,
“Where is God, your firm reliance?”
