How lovely is Your dwelling place,

My soul longs for Your face.

Like a sparrow finds its rest,

In Your house I am blessed.

Blessed are those who dwell with You,

Ever praising, ever true.

Strength within, their hearts made bold,

In Your courts, forever hold.

Verse 2 (Psalm 84:6–8)

Through life’s valley, dark and deep,

Your hand will guide, Your watch You keep.

The rains may fall, the storms may rage,

But on Your mountain, we engage.

Lord Almighty, hear my plea,

Make Your face shine bright on me.

Better one day in Your courts to stay,

Than a thousand days away.

The Lord is sun and shield to me,

He grants all good, sets captives free.

No good thing will He withhold,

Blessed the souls who trust and hold.
