In His Presence
"Better is one day in your courts than a thousand elsewhere; I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of the wicked." Psalm 84:10
I heard that verse in the church service the other day and it reminded me how much i love the song that is based around that verse, which goes like this:
Tink xoxo"How lovely is your dwelling place. Oh lord almighty.
For my soul longs and even faints, for you.
For here 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.
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
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.
Better is one day, Better is one day,
Better is one day than thousands elsewhere.
Chorus
Thousands elsewhere. We want to know you.
Thousands elsewhere.
We will draw near to you."
