soul thirst

As the deer pants for streams of water,
       so my soul pants for you, O God.
My soul thirsts for God, for the living God.
       When can I go and meet with God?

Why are you downcast, O my soul?
       Why so disturbed within me?
Put your hope in God,
       for I will yet praise him,
       my Savior and my God.
      
By day Yahweh directs his love,
       at night his song is with me—
       a prayer to the God of my life.

Why are you downcast, O my soul?
       Why so disturbed within me?
Put your hope in God,
       for I will yet praise him,
       my Savior and my God.


Psalm 42:1,2,5,8,11 NIV

[Your word refreshes my soul like water soothes thirst]
