As the Deer

Japanese Lyrics - 鹿のように

谷川の流れを慕う

鹿のように

主よ、我が魂

あなたを慕う

あなたこそ我が盾

あなたこそ我が力

あなたこそ我が望み

我は主を仰ぐ

Transliteration - Shika no You ni

Tanigawa no nagare wo shitau

Shika no you ni

Shu yo, Wa ga tamashii

Anata wo shitau

Anata koso wa ga tate

Anata koso wa ga chikara

Anata koso wa ga nozomi

Ware wa Shu wo aogu

As the Deer

As the deer panteth for the water

So my soul longeth after Thee

You alone are my heart's desire

And I long to worship Thee

You alone are my strength, my shield

To You alone may my spirit yield

You alone are my heart's desire

And I long to worship Thee
