Psalm 84 The Passion Translation (TPT)Longing for God84 For the Pure and Shining OneA prophetic song written by the sons of KorahSet to the melody of “For the Feast of Harvest”[a]1 God of Heaven’s Armies, you find so much beauty in your people!They’re like lovely sanctuaries of your presence.[b]2 Deep within me are these lovesick longings,desires and daydreams of living in union with you.When I’m near you my heart and my soulwill sing and worship with my joyful songs of you,my true source and spring of life!3 O Lord of Heaven’s Armies, my King and my God,even the sparrows and swallows are welcome to build a nestamong your altars for the birds to raise their young.4 What pleasure fills those who live every day in your temple,enjoying you as they worship in your presence!Pause in his presence5 How enriched are they who find their strength in the Lord;[c]within their hearts are the highways of holiness![d]6 Even when their paths wind through the dark valley of tears,they dig deep to find a pleasant pool where others find only pain.He gives to them a brook of blessingfilled from the rain of an outpouring.7 They grow stronger and stronger with every step forward,and the God of all gods will appear before them in Zion.8 Hear my cry, O God of Heaven’s Armies!God of Jacob, listen to my loving prayer.Pause in his presence9 God, your wrap-around presence is our defense.In your kindness look upon the faces of your anointed ones.[e]10 For just one day of intimacy with you[f] is likea thousand days of joy rolled into one!I’d rather stand at the threshold in front of the Gate Beautiful,ready to go in and worship my God,than to live my life without youin the most beautiful palace of the wicked.11 For the Lord God is brighter than the brilliance of a sunrise!Wrapping himself around me like a shield,he is so generous with his gifts of grace and glory.Those who walk along his paths with integritywill never lack one thing they need, for he provides it all!12 O Lord of Heaven’s Armies,what euphoria fills those who forever trust in you!
