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.
Chorus
Better is one day in Your courts
Better is one day in Your house
Better is one day in Your courts
Than thousands elsewhere (x2)
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.
Chorus
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.
