in his presence

in your presence there is fullness of joy

at his right hand

there are pleasures ever more;

as we dwell within your gates

your holy name we celebrate!

i was glad when

they said unto me

come and dwell

in that place where you will be;

as we stand on holy ground

and with the angels we resound!

there is joy in your presence

peace in your presence;

that's where i want to be say

that's where i want to be

so i will enter into your gates with thanksgiving

in your courts

i will lift my hands and sing;

we will bless your holy name

your greatness we proclaim!

i will sing unto you a brand new song

shout with triumph and dance before your throne;

rejoice in you always

you are the strength of all my days!

for i found out

there is joy in your presence

peace in your presence;

that's where i want to be say

that's where i want to be

i know there's healing

right there

and deliverance

right there;

and that is where i want to be

and that is where i want to be

in your presence

right there
