Lyrics

Verse 1

How lovely is Your dwelling place
O Lord Almighty
For my soul longs and even faints
For You

Verse 2

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
Better is one day in Your courts
Better is one day in Your house
Better is one day in Your courts
Than thousands elsewhere

Verse 3

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

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
Better is one day in Your courts
Better is one day in Your house
Better is one day in Your courts
Than thousands elsewhere

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

Vamp

To You

Refrain

Better is one day
Better is one day
Better is one day
Than thousands elsewhere
Better is one day
Better is one day
Better is one day
Than thousands elsewhere
