Angel Xulu presents a beautiful rendition of the Christian song, ‘As the Deer.’
It is a well-known praise and worship hymn written by Martin J. Nystrom, of Seattle.
After graduating from Oral Roberts University, Tulsa, Oklahoma, he served as a musical evangelist with Christ for the Nations, Dallas, Texas.
As the deer panteth for the water
So my soul longeth after thee
You alone are my heart’s desire
And I long to worship thee
Martin Nystrom wrote this famous praise and worship song in 1984, this song is based on Psalm 42:1, “As the deer pants for the water, so my soul longeth after Thee; You alone are my heart’s desire, and I long to worship Thee”
You alone are my strength my shield
To You alone may my spirit yield
You alone are my heart’s desire
And I long to worship thee
‘As the Deer’ is sung by congregations around the world and today as Angel Xulu sings this song we are led to praise God singing it.
