Unless the Lord builds the house, its builders laor in vain. Unless the Lord watches over the city, the watchmen stand guard in vain. Click on photo for website. (CLICK ON TITLE TO HEAR SONG) BETTER IS ONE DAY by The Haven Quartet Better is one day, Better is one day, Better is one day, Better is one day, How lovely is Your dwelling place, Oh Lord, Almighty. 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 house, Better is one day in your courts, Than thousands elsewhere. Better is one day in Your courts, Better is one day in Your house, Better is one day in Your courts, Than thousands elsewhere. (Thousands elsewhere!) One thing I ask and I would seek, To see Your beauty; (To see Your beauty!) To find You in the place Your glory dwells. Better is one day in Your courts, Better is one day in Your house, Better is one day in your courts, Than thousands elsewhere. Better is one day in Your courts, Better is one day in Your house, Better is one day in Your courts, Than thousands elsewhere, (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, I will draw near to You, (To You!) Better is one day in Your courts, Better is one day in Your house, Better is one day in your courts, Than thousands elsewhere. Better is one day in Your courts, Better is one day in Your house, Better is one day in your courts, Than thousands elsewhere, (Thousands elsewhere!) Better is one day, Better is one day, Better is one day, Better is one day, Better is one day, Better is one day, Better is one day........ |
