Better Is One Day

Better Is One Day
By: Matt Redman 

E                                 A            B 
How lovely is Your dwelling place, Oh Lord Almighty
    E                                  B 
For my soul longs and even faints for You
     E                         A              B 
For here my heart is satisfied, within Your presence
   E                              B 
I sing beneath the shadow of Your wings


          A 
Better is one day in Your courts
          B 
Better is one day in Your house
          A 
Better is one day in Your courts
                B        (repeat chorus) 
Than thousands elsewhere         
                A 
Than thousands elsewhere 


      E                          A             B 
One thing I ask and I would seek, to see Your beauty
     E                               B 
To find You in the place Your glory dwells


      A 
Better is...


C#m                      B  A 
 My heart and flesh cry out,
                    B C#m 
For You the living God
                    B      A  B 
Your spirit's water to my soul
C#m                   B   A 
I've tasted and I've seen,
                   B C#m 
Come once again to me
                     B A 
I will draw near to You
                     B 
I will draw near to You


      A 
Better is...


E                                 A            B 
How lovely is Your dwelling place, Oh Lord Almighty
    E                                  B A 
For my soul longs and even faints for You
