No stag in chase so thirsty is Or greedy of sweet spring,1“As the hart panteth after the fountains of water; so my soul panteth after thee, O God. My soul hath thirsted after the strong living God; when shall I come and appear before the face of God?” (Psalm 41:2-3, Douay-Rheims Bible). As is my soul of thee, My God, while I here sighing sing.
