Shane & Shane's 'I Delight in You (Psalm 1)' is a worship song that draws directly from Psalm 1, celebrating the joy and satisfaction found in God's Word. The lyrics compare the Lord to a stream of pure water that nourishes and satisfies the soul, and they express a commitment to meditate on Scripture day and night. The song also acknowledges human weakness and the tendency to wander, but it points to the cross where sins were nailed, leading to a response of delight and praise. It's a reflective and prayerful piece that encourages believers to find their delight in God alone.

Lord You are a stream of purest water
Blessing grows in beauty by Your side
From the rising of the sun until the day is done
In Your Word, oh Lord, I will abide
I delight in You
I delight in You
Like water, You satisfy my soul
I delight in You
I delight in You
Oh day and night
I delight in You
Keep me from the counsel of the wicked
Keep your light upon the ancient path
Chaff will blow away
And all the flowers fade
But only You and Your Word will last
I delight in You
I delight in You
Like water, You satisfy my soul
I delight in You
I delight in You
Oh day and night
I delight in You
Lord You know my heart is prone to wander
Lord You know my feet have gone astray
Though my flesh my fail
Every sin was nailed to the Cross
Now I will sing
I delight in You
I delight in You
Like water, You satisfy my soul
I delight in You
I delight in You
Oh day and night
I delight in You
I delight in You
I delight in You
Like water, You satisfy my soul
I delight in You
I delight in You
Oh day and night
I delight in You
Oh day and night
I delight in You
