G5                                          C5                          D5 
How lovely is your dwelling place, oh Lord almighty 
      G5                                                     D5 
For my soul longs and even faints for you 
    G5      
For here my heart is satisfied  
C5               D5 
Within your presence 
  G5                                                 D5 
I sing beneath the shadow of your wings 
  

             C5 
Better is one day in your courts 
              D5 
Better is one day in house 
              C5  
Better is one day in your courts 
                            D5 
Than thousands elsewhere 
                           G5 
Than thousands elsewhere 
  

         G5         
One thing I ask and I would seek 
C5                 D5 
To see your beauty 
      G5                                               D5 
To find you in the place your glory dwells 
  

E5                             D5 
My heart and flesh cry out 
C5                        D5 
For you the living God 
E5                       D5     C5     D5        
Your spirit's water to my soul 
E5                        D5 
I've tasted and I've seen 
C5                
Come once again to me 
  

G5 
I will draw near to you 
A5 
I will draw near to you

Better is one day, than thousands elsewhere
