Psalm 84:2-4
New International Version
2 My soul yearns,(A) even faints,
for the courts of the Lord;
my heart and my flesh cry out
for the living God.(B)
3 Even the sparrow has found a home,
and the swallow a nest for herself,
where she may have her young—
a place near your altar,(C)
Lord Almighty,(D) my King(E) and my God.(F)
4 Blessed are those who dwell in your house;
they are ever praising you.[a]
