Psalms 84:4

Praise and worshipGod's presenceJoy

2 My soul longs, even faints, for the courts of the LORD; my heart and my flesh cry out for the living God.

3 Even the sparrow has found a home, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she places her young near Your altars, O LORD of Hosts, my King and my God.

How blessed are those who dwell in Your house! They are ever praising You. Selah

5 Blessed are those whose strength is in You, whose hearts are set on pilgrimage.

6 As they pass through the Valley of Baca, they make it a place of springs; even the autumn rain covers it with pools.
