Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Remember from your heart not just from your arms
[Verse 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
[Verse 3]
Better is one day in Your courts
Better is one day in Your house
Better is one day in Your courts
Than thousands elsewhere
[Verse 4]
Better is one day in Your courts
Better is one day in Your house
Better is one day in Your courts
Than thousands elsewhere
[Verse 5]
Just worship the Lord, just stand before Him
Just stand for Him
Just worship Him now
Just lift up your hearts and worship
See how lovely is your dwelling place
Say this to God from your hearts
[Verse 6]
How lovely is Your dwelling place
Oh, Lord Almighty
For my soul longs, and even faints for You (For you)
For here my heart is satisfied (Is satisfied)
Within Your presence
And I sing beneath the shadow of Your wings, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 7]
Better is one day in Your courts
Better is one day in Your house
Better is one day in Your courts
Than thousands elsewhere
[Verse 8]
Better is one day in Your courts
Better is one day in Your house
Better is one day in Your courts
Than thousands elsewhere
[Verse 9]
You see the one thing I ask
And this is what I seek
Sing it from your heart to God
[Verse 10]
One thing I ask, and I would seek
To see Your beauty
To find You in the place Your glory dwells
[Verse 11]
Let's sing it again, one thing I ask, let's lift our hands
[Verse 12]
One thing I ask, and I would seek (I would seek)
(Your beauty)
To see Your beauty
To find You in the place Your glory dwells
(Better is one day with You)
[Verse 13]
Better is one day in Your courts
Better is one day in Your house
Better is one day in Your courts
Than thousands elsewhere
[Verse 14]
Better is one day in Your courts
Better is one day in Your house
Better is one day in Your courts
Than thousands elsewhere
[Verse 15]
(My heart and flesh cry out)
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 (I feel complete, yeah)
[Verse 16]
Better is one day in Your courts
Better is one day in Your house
Better is one day, than thousands elsewhere
[Verse 17]
Better is one day, better is one day
Better is one day, than thousands elsewhere
Than thousands elsewhere
[Verse 18]
My heart draws near to You
My heart draws near to You
[Verse 19]
Better is one day
And better is one day
Better is one day
