Better by Far

Songwriter(s): Mark Altrogge

CCLI: #2256995

May 01 1997

Lyrics:

CHORUS
Better by far is Your presence
Better by far is Your Spirit
Nothing compares
To Your love poured out in my heart
Better by far is Your presence
Better by far is Your Spirit
Nothing compares
To Your love poured out in my heart
It’s better by far

VERSE 1
Better by far
To be near You
Than be freed from all of my trials
Better by far
That You make me like Christ
Than to give me all I desire

VERSE 2
Better by far
Just to know You
Than be blessed in all other ways
Better by far
That You work in my life
To the praise of Your glory and grace
