Song Lyrics

"The Courts Of The Lord"

by John Michael Talbot
Album: Meditations In The Spirit

(Psalm 84)

My soul is longing
For the courts of the Lord.
More than the watchman
Who waits for the dawn.

It is good to give thanks to the Lord
On the harp in the watch of the night.
My soul is longing
For the courts of the Lord.

The swallow, herself now
Finds a sure home;
Laying her little ones
By the altar of God.

Blessed are those who now dwell
In Your house, ever singing Your praise.
My soul is longing
For the courts of the Lord.

One day in Your house, Oh Lord,
Is better than one day
Anywhere else, at all.

My soul is longing
For the courts of the Lord.
More than the watchman
Who waits for the dawn.
