Better Is One Day

    G                              C2        D
How lovely is your dwelling place, oh Lord almighty

    G                                 D

For my soul longs and even faints for you

    G    

For here my heart is satisfied

C2          D

Within your presence

  G                               D

I sing beneath the shadow of your wings

 

          C2

Better is one day in your courts

          D

Better is one day in house

          C2

Better is one day in your courts

               D

Than thousands elsewhere

               G

Than thousands elsewhere

 

    G        

One thing I ask and I would seek

C2          D

To see your beauty

   G                                D

To find you in the place your glory dwells

 

Em7                    D

My heart and flesh cry out

C2                 D

For you the living God

Em7                 D     C2     D      

Your spirit’s water to my soul

Em7                  D

I’ve tasted and I’ve seen

C2              

Come once again to me

 

G

I will draw near to you

Am7

I will draw near to you

 

 

Bridge: C2 - D2

 

          C2                 D

Better is one day, better is one day

          C2                      D

Better is one day, than thousands elsewhere
