Better Is One Day

Verse 1

How lovely is Your dwelling place,
O Lord Almighty.
My soul longs and even faints for You.
For 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.
(Repeat)

Verse 2

One thing I ask and I would seek;
To see Your beauty,
To find You in the place Your glory dwells.

Bridge

My heart and flesh cry out
For You, the living God;
Your Spirit's water for 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.
