Tune: Eleanor Plunkett (Turlough O’Carolan)

O God, you are my God, and I long for you
O God, you are my God, and I long for you
My whole being desires you, like a dry land, like a dry land
my soul thirsts for you, my soul thirsts for you
Let me see you in your sanctuary and I will praise
I’ll be satisfied, I’ll be satisfied as long as I live, as long as I live

Your steadfast love is better than life and I will praise you
Your steadfast love is better than life and I will praise you
I will lift my hands and I will call to you in
The watches of the night, watches of the night
My soul clings to you, my soul clings to you
In the shadow of your wings I will sing out for joy
I’ll be satisfied, I’ll be satisfied as long as I live, as long as I live
