Heaven’s Homecoming Hymn – Psalm 84

Verse 1:
Oh how lovely is the place
Where you dwell, Lord of grace
My heart longs, my soul cries out
For the courts of the Lord devout

Chorus:
Blessed are those who dwell with you
Heaven’s homecoming, forever true
Better is one day in your courts
Than a thousand in earthly forts

Verse 2:
Even sparrows find their rest
Near your altar, truly blessed
How I long to be like them
Close to you, my God and friend

Chorus:
Blessed are those who dwell with you
Heaven’s homecoming, forever true
Better is one day in your courts
Than a thousand in earthly forts

Bridge:
For the Lord God is a sun and shield
Bestowing grace and glory in the field
No good thing does he withhold
From those whose walk is bold

Chorus:
Blessed are those who dwell with you
Heaven’s homecoming, forever true
Better is one day in your courts
Than a thousand in earthly forts

Outro:
O Lord Almighty, hear my prayer
Listen to my cry, my soul’s affair
For one day in your courts is better
Than a thousand elsewhere, forever.
