Peter Grant has written a restrained and appropriately mournful setting for this text based on Psalm 42 and 43.
The sheet music can be purchased for download from Willow where there is a preview to listen to and enough of the sheet music in the sample to get the idea.
My backing has more percussion than his, which is questionable.
Refrain
Like a deer that longs for running streams my soul longs for you,
longs for you; my soul longs for you my God.
1 My soul is thirsting for God, the God of my life.
When can I enter and see the face of God, see the face of my God.
2 Send forth your light and your truth; let these be my guide.
Let them bring me to your holy mountain, to the place where you dwell.
3 And I will come to the altar of God, the God of my joy.
My redeemer, I will thank you on the harp, O God my God.
