''As the Deer'' is a well-known praise and worship song by Martin J. Nystrom, a native of Seattle, Washington. Written in 1981, this song is based on Psalm (42:1 ); "As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you, my God." == Lyrics == As the deer panteth for the water So my soul longeth after You You alone are my heart's desire And I long to worship You. ''Chorus'' ''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 you '' I want You more than gold or silver Only You can satisfy. You alone are the real joy Giver And the apple of my eye. You're my friend and You are my brother Even though You are a king. I love You more than any other, So much more than anything.〔http://www.songlyrics.com/maranatha!-singers/as-the-deer-lyrics/〕 There are also different variations of this song that are quite common, such as: As the deer pants for the water so my soul longs after you Many versions〔e.g. http://www.higherpraise.com/Lyrics/7_AsTheDeer.htm〕 preserve the "Thee" of the King James Version of the psalm verse also in the refrain ("And I long to worship Thee"), resulting in a clash of with the previous line (which ought to be "''Thou'' alone ''art'' my heart's desire" to keep the Elizabethan English). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「As the Deer」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
