Better Than Life (Psalm 63)

Lyrics

Verse 1:
Oh God, You are my God
I seek for You in earnest
I know that You are worth it

My soul thirsts for You God
In a dry and weary place
My flesh for You it faints

Chorus:
Because Your steadfast love is better than life
I’ll open my lips now to praise You

Because Your steadfast love it satisfies
I’ll lift up my hands now to praise You, God

Verse 2:
Yes I will be satisfied
As with the richest food
I hunger now for You

And in the darkness of the night
I’m safe beneath Your wing
I’ll lift my voice and sing

Chorus

Bridge (2x):
I have seen Your power and Your glory, your glory
So I will cling to You as you uphold me, You hold me

Chorus

Outro:
Oh God, You are my God
I seek for You in earnest
I know that You are worth it
