### ————————— Verse 1: ———————————————————————————————————————————————————

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

### ————————— Chorus 1: ——————————————————————————————————————————————————

Better is one day in Your courts

Better is one day in Your house

Better is one day in Your courts than thousands elsewhere

(Than thousands elsewhere)

### ————————— Verse 2: ———————————————————————————————————————————————————

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

### ————————— Bridge 1: ——————————————————————————————————————————————————

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

### ————————— Bridge 2: ——————————————————————————————————————————————————

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
