How lovely is your dwelling place. Oh lord almighty.

For my soul longs and even faints, for you.

For in my heart is satisfied (satisfied) within your presence.

I sing beaneth the shadow of your wings.



Chorus

Better is one 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.

One thing I ask and I would seek to see your beauty.

To find you in the place your glory dwells.



Chorus (2x)



My heart and flesh cry out.

To you the living God.

Your spirit is 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)



I will draw near to you,I will draw near to you.



(2x)Better is one day, Better is one day,

Better is one day than thousands elsewhere.



Chorus (2x)



Thousands elsewhere. We want to know you.

Thousands elsewhere.

We will draw near to you.
