Where You are, I wanna be
I wanna be there
I'd rather speed one day with You
Than a thousand elsewhere (sing, "Where You are")
Where You are, I wanna be (I wanna be there)
I wanna be there (sing, "I'd rather speed one day")
I'd rather speed one day with You (than a thousand elsewhere)
Than a thousand elsewhere
So if there's one thing I desire
If there's one thing I'll seek after
It's to make Your house my home
And live here forever and ever and ever and ever
Here in Your house (sing, "Here in Your house")
Here in Your house
Wherever You are (is home for me)
Is home for me (oh, better is one day)
Oh, better is one day (oh!)
One day, sing, one day with You
Hey! Now everybody clap like this
Hey, come on, y'all got it (sing, "Where You are")
Where You are, I wanna be (I wanna be there)
I wanna be there (I'd rather spend one day with You)
I'd rather spend one day with You (than a thousand elsewhere)
Than a thousand elsewhere
So, if there's one thing I desire (if there's one thing)
If there's one thing I'll seek after (I'll seek after, it's to make Your)
Is to make Your house my home (sing)
And live here forever (forever) and ever (and ever)
And ever (ever) and ever (ever), snd ever (ever) and ever (ever)
And ever and ever (here in Your house)
Here in Your house
Here in Your house (wherever You are)
Wherever You are (hey)
Is home for me (sing, "Here in Your house")
Here in Your house
Here in Your house (wherever You are)
Wherever You are (is home for me)
Is home for me (sing, "Oh better is")
Oh, better is one day
One day (oh, better is)
Oh, better is one day
One day (sing, "Oh, better is")
Oh, better is one day
One day (one day with You)
One day with You (sing, "One day with You")
One day with You (ooh, sing, "One day with You")
One day with You (I'd rather spend, rather spend)
One day with You (I'd rather spend one day with You)
One day with You (I'd rather spend, rather spend one day)
One day with You (I'd rather spend one day with You)
One day with You (sing, oh, yeah)
One day with You (I'd rather spend one day with You, sing)
One day with You (sing, "One day with You")
One day with You (hey, hey, sing, "One day with You")
One day with You (sing, oh, yeah)
One day with You (sing, "One day with You")
One day with You (clap right here, yeah)
One day with You (I'd rather spend one day, yeah)
One day with You (yeah)
One day with You (I'd rather spend one day, sing)
