As the hart, about to falter,

F      Dm       Bb C F
In its trembling agony,

F       Dm      F      Bb C
Panteth for the brooks of water,

Dm    F          Bb  C   F
So my soul doth pant for Thee.

Dm     C          Am     F
Yea, athirst for Thee I cry;

God of life, O when shall I

F     Gm      Dm     Am   Bb
Come again to stand before Thee

F       Bb    Gm   Fsus4 F/A
In Thy temple, and adore Thee?

F      Dm    F   Bb    C
Bitter tears of lamentation

F      Dm      Bb    C   F
Are my food by night and day;

In my deep humiliation

Dm       F       Bb   C    F
Where is now thy God? they say.

Yea, my soul doth melt in me,

F      Bb       Gm  C
When I bring to memory,

How of yore I did assemble

F        Bb     Gm    Fsus4 F/A
With the joyful in Thy temple.

F     Dm        F       Bb   C
O my soul, why art thou grieving,

Why disquieted in me?

Into gladness on the morrow.

F        Dm      F       Bb  C
From the land beyond the Jordan

I bewail my misery;

F        Dm      F          Bb C
From the foothills of Mount Hermon,

Dm     F    Bb    C  F
O my God, I think of Thee.

Dm     C       Am     F
As the waters plunge and leap,

F       Bb      Gm   C
Deep re-echoes unto deep;

F       Gm        Dm      Am Bb
All Thy waves and billows roaring

F       Bb       Gm      Fsus4 F/A
O'er my troubled soul are pouring.

F        Dm        F      Bb C
But the Lord will send salvation,

F      Dm      Bb   C  F
And by day His love provide;

F        Dm     F  Bb C
He shall be my exultation,

Dm     F       Bb C F
And my song at eventide.

Dm     C        Am    F
On His praise even in night

F      Bb      Gm   C
I will ponder with delight,

F      Gm          Dm       Am Bb
And in prayer, transcending distance,

F        Bb     Gm    Fsus4 F/A
Seek the God of my existence.

F      Dm     F       Bb C
I will say to God, my fortress:

F        Dm      Bb C  F
Why hast Thou forsaken me?

F      Dm  F      Bb C
Why go I about in sadness

Dm     F           Bb C F
For my foes' dread tyranny?

Dm     C           Am      F
Their rebukes and scoffing words

F         Bb       Gm      C
Pierce my bones as pointed swords,

F       Gm       Dm      Am Bb
As they say with proud defiance:

F        Bb       Gm     Fsus4 F/A
Where is God, thy soul's reliance?

F     Dm        F       Bb   C
O my soul, why art thou grieving,

Why disquieted in me?

F       Dm       F       Bb  C
Hope in God, thy faith retrieving;

He will still thy refuge be.

God, who will from shame deliver,

Is my God, my rock, forever.
