Better Is One Day

How lovely is Your dwelling place,
Oh Lord, Almighty
For 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

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

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

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

My heart and flesh cry out
For 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 (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

Better is one day...
(Better is one day in your courts)
Better is one day...
(Better is one day in your house)
Better is one day...
(Better is one day in your courts)
Than thousands elsewhere
(Repeat 5x)

Than thousands elsewhere
Than thousands elsewhere
Than thousands elsewhere
