¶Lyrics / Text

1. When like the hunted hind, The water brooks desire, E'en thus my soul, That fainted is, To Thee would fain aspire. 2. My soul did thirst to God, To God of life and grace, It said e'en thus: When shall I come To see God's lively face? 3. My tears in stead of meat Both day and night they were: While that all day Rebukers said, Where is thy God so far? 4. When this came soon to heart, I yet recomfort felt: And trust to lead The people forth, To go where Thou hast dwelt. 5. To joy in voice of mirth, With lauds and thanks alway: Among Thy folk, When that they keep So high their holy day. 6. Why cast thyself then down, My soul, I said no less: Why lay in me So painfully In woe and carefulness? 7. Put thou thy trust in God, Let things not thee amaze: I will Him thank For all His help, In sight of His good grace.
