How lovely is Your dwelling place oh Lord Almighty,
For my soul longs and even faints for You
Oh, here my heart is satisfied within Your presence
I sing beneath the shadow of Your wings.
Better is one day in Your courts
Better is one day in Your house
Better is one day in Your courts
Than thousands elsewhere
One thing I ask, and I would seek, to see Your beauty
To find You in the place Your glory dwells
Oh, here my heart is satisfied within Your presence
I sing beneath the shadow of Your wings.
Better is one day in Your courts
Better is one day in Your house
Better is one day in Your courts
Than thousands elsewhere
My heart and flesh cry out to You, the Living God
Your Spirit's water to my soul
I've tasted, and I've seen. Come once again to me.
I will draw near to You. I will draw near to You.
Better is one day in Your courts
Better is one day in Your house
Better is one day in Your courts
Than thousands elsewhere
Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all the earth:
Make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise.
