Where the living fountain floweth,
Far from sin and strife.

Higher, higher, lift me higher,

To the mount of God.

That thy feet have trod. [Chorus] Used With Tune: [Lift me higher, blessed Savior]

Like a deer that longs for running streams
Like as the hart desireth the water brooks
Appears in 6 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 42:1 Topics: Anthem
Like as the hart desireth the water brooks
Like as the hart doth pant and bray
Author: J. H. Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 42 Lyrics: 1 Like as the hart doth pant and bray
the well-springs to obtain;
So doth my soul desire alway
with thee, Lord, to remain.
2 My soul doth thirst, and would draw near
the living God of might;
Oh, when shall I come and appear
in presence of his sight?
3 The tears all times are my repast
which from my eyes do slide,
Whilst wicked men cry out so fast,
Where now is God thy guide?
4 Alas, what grief is it to think
the freedom once I had!
Therefore my soul as at pit's brink,
most heavy is and sad.
5 For I did march in good array
with joyful company,
Unto the temple was our way,
to praise the Lord most high.
6 My soul, why art thou sad always,
and frett'st thus in my breast?
Trust still in God, for him to praise
I hold it ever best.
7 By him I succour have at need
against all pain and grief;
He is my God, who with all speed
doth haste to send relief.
8 My soul is vexed in me, and
therefore, O Lord, I will
Remember thee, from Jordan's land,
and Hennon's little hill.
The Second Part.
9 One grief another in doth call,
as clouds burst out their voice;
The floods of evil that do fall,
run over me with noise.
10 Yet I by day felt his goodness
and help at all assays,
Likewise at night I did not cease
the living God to praise.
11 I am persuaded thus to say
to him with reverence,
O Lord, thou art my guide and stay,
my 'rock and sure defence;
12 Why do I then in pensiveness,
hanging the head, thus walk,
While that my enemies oppress
and vex me with their talk?
13 For why? They pierce my inward parts
with pains to be abhorr'd,
When they cry out with stubborn hearts,
Where now is God thy Lord?
14 So soon, my soul, why dost thou faint,
with pain and grid opprest?
Why do sad thoughts without restraint
thus rage within my breast?
15 Trust in the Lord thy God always,
and thou the time shalt see,
To give him thanks with laud and praise,
for health restor'd to thee.
Like as the hart doth pant and bray
Psalm 42
Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: Like as the hart for water-brooks Scripture: Psalm 42 Lyrics: 1 Like as the hart for water-brooks
in thirst doth pant and bray;
So pants my longing soul, O God,
that come to thee I may.
2 My soul for God, the living God,
doth thirst: when shall I near
Unto thy countenance approach,
and in God's sight appear?
3 My tears have unto me been meat,
both in the night and day,
While unto me continually,
Where is thy God? they say.
4 My soul is pourèd out in me,
when this I think upon;
Because that with the multitude
I heretofore had gone:
With them into God's house I went,
with voice of joy and praise;
Yea, with the multitude that kept
the solemn holy days.
5 O why art thou cast down, my soul?
why in me so dismayed?
Trust God, for I shall praise him yet,
his count'nance is mine aid.
6 My God, my soul's cast down in me;
thee therefore mind I will
From Jordan's land, the Hermonites,
and ev'n from Mizar hill.
7 At the noise of thy water-spouts
deep unto deep doth call;
Thy breaking waves pass over me,
yea, and thy billows all.
8 His loving-kindness yet the Lord
command will in the day,
His song's with me by night; to God,
by whom I live, I'll pray:
9 And I will say to God my rock,
Why me forgett'st thou so?
Why, for my foes' opprëssion,
thus mourning do I go?
10 'Tis as a sword within my bones,
when my foes me upbraid;
Ev'n when by them, Where is thy God?
'tis daily to me said.
11 O why art thou cast down, my soul?
why, thus with grief oppressed,
Art thou disquieted in me?
in God still hope and rest:
For yet I know I shall him praise,
who graciously to me
The health is of my countenance,
yea, mine own God is he.
Psalm 42
To the chief Musician. Maschil for the Sons of Korah
Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Like as the panting hart doth bray Scripture: Psalm 42 Lyrics: 1 Like as the panting hart doth bray
After the water brooks;
Ev'n in such wise, O God, my soul
After thee panting looks;
2 For God, ev'n for the living God
My soul it thirsteth sore;
O when shall I come and appear
The face of God before?
3 My tears have been unto me meat
by night, likewise by day:
While all daylong they unto me,
Where is thy God? do say.
4 When as unto my memory
These things recal I do,
Then I pour out my soul in me:
For I with troops did go.
With them unto God's house I went
With voice of joy and praise:
I with a multitude did go,
That did keep holy days.
5 My soul, why art cast down, and why
Stirr'd in me? thy hope place
In God, for praise him yet shall I
For health is in his face.
[2]
6 My God my soul in me's cast down;
Therefore thee mind I will
From Jordan's land, and Hermonites,
And from the little hill.
7 At sounding of thy water spouts,
Deep unto deep doth call;
Thy waves pass over me, likewise
Thy breaking billows all.
8 His loving kindness ye the Lord
command will in the day:
And in the night his songs with me,
To God my life I'll pray.
9 I'll say to God my rock, O why
Hast thou forgotten me?
For pressure of the enemy
Why should I mourning be?
10 As with a sword within my bones,
Mine en'mies me upbraid:
While all the day, Where is thy God?
They unto me have said.
11 My soul, O wherefore dost thou bow
Thy self down heavily?
And wherefore in me makest thou
A stir tumultuously?
Hope thou in God, because I shall
With praise him yet advance;
Who is my God, he also is
Health of my countenance.
To the chief Musician. Maschil for the Sons of Korah
