If I Was A Bird Lyrics

Mission House

Verse 1

This is where I wanna be, right inside Your house
This is where I wanna be, right inside Your house
If I was a bird, I would make my nest
In the rafters of Your sanctuary
I, I don’t ever wanna fly away
No I, I don’t ever wanna fly away

Verse 2

I know where I belong, right here by Your side
I know where I belong, right here by Your side
To open fields and peaceful streams
I know that You are leading me
And I, I don’t ever wanna run away
No I, I don’t ever wanna run away
No I, I don’t ever wanna run away
No I, I don’t ever wanna run away

Bridge

Happy are those who dwell in the house of God
Can I get an amen?
Happy are those who dwell in the house of God
Can we say it again?

Happy are those who dwell in the house of God
Can I get an amen?
Happy are those who dwell in the house of God
Happy are those who dwell in the house of God
Happy are those who dwell in the house of God

Bridge 2

David said
I’d rather have one day in Your house
Than a thousand anywhere else
David said
I’d rather have one day in Your house
Than a thousand anywhere else

So, my soul says
I’d rather have one day in Your house
Than a thousand anywhere else
Than a thousand anywhere else
I’d rather have one day in Your house
I’d rather have one day in Your house
Than a thousand anywhere else
Than a thousand anywhere else

Happy are those who dwell in the house of God
Happy are those who dwell in the house of God
Happy are those who dwell in the house of God
Happy are those who dwell in the house of God

Tag

I’d rather hold the doors, I’d rather sweep the floors
than be anywhere else but here, anywhere else but here

Happy are those who dwell in the house of God
Happy are those who dwell in the house of God
Happy are those who dwell in the house of God
Happy are those who dwell in the house of God
