Better Is One Day Lyrics


How lovely is Your dwelling place, O 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
One thing I ask and I would seek
To see Your beauty
To find You in the place Your glory dwells
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

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
