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 courts

Than thousands elsewhere

One thing I ask and I would seek

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
A
I will draw near to you
[Chorus]

Better is one day in your courts

Better is one day in your house
A
Better is one day in your courts
B E
Than thousands elsewhere
