Better Is One Day
Lyrics and Music by Matt Redman

Verse 1:

    Eb                            Ab2              Bbsus
How lovely is Your dwelling place, O Lord, Almight - y.

    Eb                                Bbsus
For my soul longs and even faints for You.

    Eb                        Ab2               Bbsus
For here my heart is satisfied within Your pres - ence.

  Eb                              Bbsus
I sing beneath the shadow of Your wings.

Chorus:

          Ab2                               Bbsus
Better is one day in Your courts, better is one day in Your house,

          Ab2                                   Bbsus
better is one day in Your courts than thousands elsewhere.

Eb/G      Ab2                               Bbsus
Better is one day in Your courts, better is one day in Your house,

          Ab2                                   Bbsus
better is one day in Your courts than thousands elsewhere,

               Eb
than thousands elsewhere.

Verse 2:

    Eb                           Ab2               Bbsus
One thing I ask and I would seek: to see Your beau - ty,

   Eb                               Bbsus
to find You in the place Your glory dwells.

    Eb                           Ab2               Bbsus
One thing I ask and I would seek: to see Your beau - ty,

   Eb                               Bbsus
to find You in the place Your glory dwells.
