lyrics

Verse 1:
There is life, there is peace,
There is freedom, joy, and rest,
I am loved and accepted in my Lord.
I will lay down my life
And leave it all behind
For Jesus is better than this world.

Chorus:
Oh, Jesus is better than life.
He's better than my health
And better than my wealth.
Oh, Jesus will be my delight
For Jesus is better than this world.

Verse 2:
Oh the slave is released
And the outcast is embraced,
Ev'ry debt is forgiven by my Lord.
I will leave ev'ry prize
And find my worth in Christ
For Jesus is better than this world.

Verse 3:
He's my shepherd, my friend,
My defender to the end,
He's the giver of ev'rything that's good.
I will follow His call
To give my love, my all
For Jesus is better than this world.
