VERSE 1
As pants the hart for cooling streams,
When heated in the chase,
So long my soul, O God, for Thee,
And Thy refreshing grace.
VERSE 2
For Thee, my God, the living God,
My thirsty soul doth pine,
O when shall I behold Thy face,
Thou majesty divine!
VERSE 3
Why restless, why cast down, my soul!
Trust God, who will employ
His aid for thee and change these sighs
To thankful hymns of joy.
VERSE 4
God of my strength, how long shall I,
Like one forgotten, mourn!
Forlorn, forsaken, and exposed
To my oppressor's scorn.
VERSE 5
Why restless, why cast down, my soul!
Hope still, and thou shalt sing
The praise of Him who is thy God,
Thy health's eternal spring.
VERSE 6
The Father, Son and Holy Ghost
Thou God that we worship
Worthy of glory and honour,
For ever more be praised.
