Better is one day [French translation]

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

(repeat)

One thing I ask, and I would seek, to see Your beauty,

To find You in the place Your glory dwells

My heart and flesh cry out,

For You the living God

Your Spirit's water for 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

How lovely is Your dwelling place O'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

One thing I ask and I would seek to see Your beauty

To find You in the place Your glory dwells

One thing I ask and I would seek to see Your beauty

To find You in the place Your glory dwells

My heart and flesh cry out for You the living God

Your spirits 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
