Reviews
"Recommended"-The American Organist 4/93
"David Ashley White's tender setting of Carl Daw's paraphrase of Psalm 42 ('As panting deer') is only 34 measures, but it is a totally satisfying work."-AAM Journal, February 1995.
Description A pleasing and honest setting of Carl Daw's paraphrase of the first two verses of Psalm 42. It begins in unison, moves into four-part unaccompanied singing, and closes with choir and organ. As Panting Deer works well at baptisms or before a litany of commitment or dedication. Easily rehearsed.

Anthem Text
As panting deer desire the waterbrooks
when wand'ring in a dry and desert place,
so yearns my thirsty soul for you, O God,
and longs at last to see you face to face.
Text: Carl P. Daw, Jr., based on Psalm 42:1-2.
