My heart's desire



Two deer wandering in the grounds of Glamis Castle last week caught my eye. They brought instantly to mind one of my favourite hymns:-

As the deer pants for the water,
so my soul longs after you.
You alone are my heart's desire
and I long to worship You.

You alone are my strength and 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.
