REFRAIN
My soul is thirsting and yearning for the house of the Lord
for the house of the Living God
VERSE 1
How lovely is your dwelling place O Lord
God of host My soul is longing yearning
is yearning for the court of the Lord
VERSE 2
The sparrow herself finds a home and swallow a nest for her brood
She lays her young by your altar Lord of host my King and my God
VERSE 3
They are happy who dwells in your house for ever
singing your Praise They are happy whose strength is in you
in whose hearts are the roads to Sion
VERSE 4
O one day within your courts is better than
thousand elsewhere the threshold of the God's house
I prefer to the dwellings of the wicked
