No Place Better (Psalm 84)
How lovely is Your dwelling place
How wonderful Your presence, Lord
How my soul longs to see Your face
To come with joy into Your courts
How blessed is the little sparrow
Who makes a nest inside Your house
'Cause I can think of no place better
To make a home and sing out loud
I wanna be in Your presence, I wanna be near Your heart
I wanna know You're close even when I'm feeling far
I don't want what this world would offer, I want the living God
'Cause there's no place better than where You are
We will go from strength to strength
Even in the wilderness
You are turning tears to desert springs
Leaving gardens in our footsteps
How blessed is the longing pilgrim
Whose heart is set on Zion's hill
The one who knows there's no place better
To bring our sorrows and be filled
I wanna be in Your presence, I wanna be near Your heart
I wanna know You're close even when I'm feeling far
I don't want what this world would offer, I want the living God
'Cause there's no place better than where You are
One day with You is better than a thousand elsewhere
One word from You is better than silver or gold
I'd rather be a servant in Your house, O God
Than a king with all the riches I could hold
One day with You is better than a thousand elsewhere
One word from You is better than silver or gold
I'd rather be a servant in Your house, O God
Than a king with all the riches I could hold
I wanna be in Your presence, I wanna be near Your heart
I wanna know You're close even when I'm feeling far
I don't want what this world would offer, I want the living God
'Cause there's no place better than where You are
Oh, there's no place better than where You are
No place better
No place better, ooh
How wonderful Your presence, Lord
How my soul longs to see Your face
To come with joy into Your courts
How blessed is the little sparrow
Who makes a nest inside Your house
'Cause I can think of no place better
To make a home and sing out loud
I wanna be in Your presence, I wanna be near Your heart
I wanna know You're close even when I'm feeling far
I don't want what this world would offer, I want the living God
'Cause there's no place better than where You are
We will go from strength to strength
Even in the wilderness
You are turning tears to desert springs
Leaving gardens in our footsteps
How blessed is the longing pilgrim
Whose heart is set on Zion's hill
The one who knows there's no place better
To bring our sorrows and be filled
I wanna be in Your presence, I wanna be near Your heart
I wanna know You're close even when I'm feeling far
I don't want what this world would offer, I want the living God
'Cause there's no place better than where You are
One day with You is better than a thousand elsewhere
One word from You is better than silver or gold
I'd rather be a servant in Your house, O God
Than a king with all the riches I could hold
One day with You is better than a thousand elsewhere
One word from You is better than silver or gold
I'd rather be a servant in Your house, O God
Than a king with all the riches I could hold
I wanna be in Your presence, I wanna be near Your heart
I wanna know You're close even when I'm feeling far
I don't want what this world would offer, I want the living God
'Cause there's no place better than where You are
Oh, there's no place better than where You are
No place better
No place better, ooh
