about

Themes from Psalms 84

lyrics

More than any other prayer, my soul longs for your house
Gazing at your beauty, Lord to sing your praise
More than any other thing I want to see your face
To see you as you are Lord to be changed

I’d rather sit at the gate of the house of my God than live anywhere in this world
Now I dream to sing with the redeemed
Your presence equals joy; Your presence equals joy, Your presence equals joy

A land filled with milk & honey
A land that knows no pain
A land without any money
Where love reigns

Lord sometimes I get lost in this world
I get distracted my heart is filled with fear
Lord so many times I’ve gone my own way
Father please help me give me the hear to say

That I’d rather sit at the gate of the house of my God
than live anywhere in this world
Now I dream to sing with the redeemed
Your presence equals joy; Your presence equals joy, Your presence equals joy

A land filled with milk & honey
A land that knows no pain
A land without any money
Where love reigns
