In a dry and weary land where is no water My soul is thirsting for you I have seen you in the sanctuary Beheld your power and glory My lips will glorify you I will praise you as long as I live In your name I will lift up my hands
Chorus: Your love is better than life Your love is better than life Earnestly I seek you My soul is thirsting for you Cause your love is better than life
Because you are my help I will be singing In the shadow of your wing I'm staying close beside you Your right hand upholds me I think of you through the night With singing lips I will praise And my soul will be satisfied
Repeat Chorus
Bridge: Oh, God, you are my God Earnestly I seek you I'm longing for you Oh, God, you are my God Earnestly I seek you I'm longing for you
Repeat Chorus
Scriptural Reference:
\"O God, you are my God, earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you, my body longs for you, in a dry and weary land where there is no water. I have seen you in the sanctuary and beheld your power and your glory. Because your love is better than life, my lips will glorify you. I will praise you as long as I live, and in your name I will lift up my hands. My soul will be satisfied with the richest of foods; with singing lips my mouth will praise you. On my bed I remember you; I think of you through the watches of the night. Because you are my help, I sing in the shadow of your wings. My soul clings to you; your right hand upholds me.\" Psalm 63:1-8
