No Place Better (Caroline Cobb)

Verse 1
How lovely is your dwelling place
How wonderful your presence, Lord
How my soul longs to see your face
To come with joy into your courts
How blessed is the little sparrow
Who makes a nest inside your house
‘Cause I can think of no place better
To make a home and sing out loud

Chorus
I want to be in your presence,
I want to be near your heart
I want to know you’re close
Even when I’m feeling far
I don’t want what this world would offer
I want the living God
‘Cause there’s no place better than where
you are

Bridge

Verse 2
We will go from strength to strength
Even in the wilderness
You are turning tears to desert springs
Leaving gardens in our footsteps
How blessed is the longing pilgrim
Whose heart is set on Zion’s hill
The one who knows there’s no place better
To bring our sorrows and be filled

Chorus
I want to be in your presence,
I want to be near your heart
I want to know you’re close
Even when I’m feeling far
I don’t want what this world would offer
I want the living God
‘Cause there’s no place better than where
you are

Bridge

Bridge 2
One day with You
Is better than a thousand elsewhere
One word from You Is better than silver or
gold
I’d rather be a servant in Your house, Oh
Than a king with all the riches I could hold

Chorus
I want to be in your presence,
I want to be near your heart
I want to know you’re close
Even when I’m feeling far
I don’t want what this world would offer
I want the living God
‘Cause there’s no place better than where
you are

For there’s no place better than where you
are

[Tag
No place better
No place better, oooh!
