The Chapel Choir of University College, Hurham feat. Oliver Bond -
God So Loved The World: A Passiontide Sequence
Howells: Like as the Hart
Like as the hart desireth the waterbrooks
So longeth my soul after Thee, O God
My soul is a thirst for God
Yeah, even for the living God
When shall I come to appear
Before the presence of God?
My tears have been my meat day and night
While they daily say unto me
"Where, where is now thy God?"
My tears have been my meat day and night
My tears have been my meat day and night
My meat day and night
Like as the hart (like as the hart)
Desireth the waterbrooks (desireth the waterbrooks)
So longeth my soul after thee (so longeth my soul after thee)
O God (O God)
My soul is athirst for God (my soul is athirst for God)
Yeah, even for the living God (yeah, even for the living God)
When shall I come to appear
Before the presence
The presence of God?
So longeth my soul after Thee, O God
My soul is a thirst for God
Yeah, even for the living God
When shall I come to appear
Before the presence of God?
My tears have been my meat day and night
While they daily say unto me
"Where, where is now thy God?"
My tears have been my meat day and night
My tears have been my meat day and night
My meat day and night
Like as the hart (like as the hart)
Desireth the waterbrooks (desireth the waterbrooks)
So longeth my soul after thee (so longeth my soul after thee)
O God (O God)
My soul is athirst for God (my soul is athirst for God)
Yeah, even for the living God (yeah, even for the living God)
When shall I come to appear
Before the presence
The presence of God?
