lyrics

My Exceeding Joy

As the deer longs for the water
As the desert longs for rain
So my soul is thirsty for you, God,
day and night I call your name
When my enemies surround me
And pierce my heart with swords of doubt
By the power of your Spirit,
Lord, let praise come pouring out

Why are you cast down, O my soul?
Why are you struggling?
The Lord has not forsaken you
So put your hope in him,
Put your hope in him

At the bottom of the ocean
Of your deep mysterious ways
Would you give me a heart of worship
and the faith to boldly pray
As I cry out for your mercy
I'm surviving by your power
Lord, I have no strength or righteousness,
how I need you every hour

Send out your light and your truth,
send out your light and your truth
Let them lead me to your holy hill
Send out your light and your truth,
send out your light and your truth
Let them lead me to God, my exceeding joy
