Your Promises Are Better

Your promises are better than the best things I have known
My share of Your inheritance is far beyond all gold
So even if I’m threatened with the loss of all I own
I possess a promise that I have a better home
I possess a promise that I have a better home

The life You give is greater than the best life I could know
The city that we’ll live in is magnificent and gold
So even if the narrow is a dark and lonely road
The pioneer has made it clear the Way will lead us home
The pioneer has made it clear the Way will lead us home (oh yeah!)

The love You have is deeper than the deepest I could know
You gave Your life to pay the price and have me as Your own
So even if I’m desolate, forsaken and alone
You’ve made it clear, You’re always here and soon you’ll bring us home
You’ve made it clear, You’re always here and soon you’ll bring us home

Oh! Your promises are brimming with a well of living hope
You’ve given me identity as treasured, loved, and known
So even if they separate my body from my soul
Oh, I possess a promise that I have a better home
Yeah, I possess a promise of an everlasting home
Oh, I possess a promise that I’ll live within Your home
