lyrics

“How Lovely”


Verse 1:
There is one thing that I desire oh Lord,
That I may dwell in Your house forevermore,
To behold all Your beauty, and to meditate,
It's there in Your presence I will wait,

Chorus:
How lovely is Your dwelling place oh Lord,
My soul longed and yearned for Your courts,
My heart and my flesh sing for joy to the living God!
How lovely is Your dwelling place.

Verse 2:
For a day in Your courts is better than a thousand outside,
Let me dwell in Your presence and continually abide,
For just as the deer pants for the water stream,
So my soul thirsts for Thee,

Bridge:
Oh Lord how I love Your habitation,
And the place Lord where Your glory dwells,
Take me to Your throne in sweet communion,
And draw me nearer to You,
Draw me nearer to Yourself,
