HYMN - "WE STAND ON HULY GROUND" © Mike Anderson
There is a beautiful hymn written by Martin Nystrom that begins, “As the deer pants for water so my soul longs after you”. It is a haunting melody that suits a flute and acoustic guitar in particular. The hymn tells of the thirst for the love of God that haunts every soul and when not thought to be satisfied creates a longing and pain worse than any thirst.
