Whether a compound will be a solid, liquid or gas at a given temperature can be explained by the attractive forces between its molecules.
H2S (hydrogen sulfide) is a gas because at room temperature the forces and interactions between the molecules of hydrogen sulfide are very weak.
The water molecule has a stronger dipole (a negatively and positively charged end to the individual molecule) so these negative and positive ends continually attract each other like magnets of opposite poles, creating more cohesion between the molecules of water--explaining the liquid phase.
