Better By Far
Verse 1
All that once was profit I'll count as naught
Knowing You is better by far
View as worthless now all my heart once sought
Knowing You is better by far
These I'll cast away so that I may gain
And be found in You, in Your love remain
Dressed in righteousness come from God, by faith
Knowing You is better by far
Knowing You is better by far
Verse 2
I will leave behind every ease and right
Knowing You is better by far
And will press ahead to receive the prize
Knowing You is better by far
With my eyes above, not to earthly things
With an eager hope of what heaven brings
In the sovereign power of my Saving King
Knowing You is better by far
Knowing You is better by far
Bridge
To live is Christ
To die is gain
So come rejoice in Christ our Saviour
To live is Christ
To die is gain
So come rejoice
Verse 3
Grant me certain hope in a future sure
Knowing You is better by far
And for trials today, courage to endure
Knowing You is better by far
If my life's poured out like an offering
I will still rejoice, of my Saviour, sing
Till I dwell with You in eternity
Knowing You is better by far
Knowing You is better by far
Tag
Let my only boast be in You my King
Knowing You is better by far
