Better Is One Day - Petra

How lovely is Your dwelling place

Oh Lord Almighty,

My soul doth long

And even faints

For You

For in my heart

Is satisfied

Within Your presence

I see beneath

The shadow of Your wings

Better is one day on Your courts

Better is one day on Your house

Better is one day on Your courts

Than thousands elsewhere

Better is one day on Your courts

Better is one day on Your house

Better is one day on Your courts

Than thousands elsewhere

How lovely is Your dwelling place

Oh Lord Almighty,

My soul doth long

And even faints

For You

For in my heart

Is satisfied

Within Your presence

I see beneath

The shadow of Your wings

Better is one day on Your courts

Better is one day on Your house

Better is one day on Your courts

Than thousands elsewhere

Better is one day on Your courts

Better is one day on Your house

Better is one day on 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

Better is one day on Your courts

Better is one day on Your house

Better is one day on Your courts

Than thousands elsewhere
