Josh Baldwin's 'Door Keeper' is a worship song expressing a deep desire to be in God's presence above all else. The lyrics echo the psalmist's sentiment that one day in God's courts is better than a thousand elsewhere, and the singer declares he would rather be a doorkeeper in God's house than dwell anywhere else. The song emphasizes adoration, surrender, and the longing to see God's face, portraying a heart fully devoted to worship and intimacy with the Lord.

Turn Your face into my direction
And I will change into Your reflection
'Cause one day is better than a thousand
One day, here inside Your court
Turn Your face into my direction
And I will change into Your reflection
'Cause one day is better than a thousand
One day, here inside Your courts
'Cause You are so completely beautiful
How can I deny my adoration
For one more day?
One more day
And I would rather be Your door keeper, Lord
I would rather be Yours
And I would rather be Your door keeper, Lord
I would rather be Yours
So come down and take me out
Ride on my praise
'Cause I can't go without looking at Your face
'Cause one day is better than a thousand
One day, here inside Your courts
'Cause You are so completely beautiful
How can I deny my adoration
For one more day?
One more day
One more day
One more day
And I would rather be Your door keeper, Lord
I would rather be Yours
And I would rather be Your door keeper, Lord
I would rather be Yours
(One more day)
(One more day)
