Couplet 1

No greater shelter
No stronger refuge
A mighty fortress
You’re what I needed
In the middle of the night
Your light is shining through
I found my rest in You Lord
And nothing else

Couplet 2

You’ve gone before me
Prepared the table
O what a Father
You’ve always kept me
In the middle of the night
Your light is shining through
I found my rest in You Lord
And no one else

Refrain

I will not boast
In anything but You
My closest friend
Your word is always true
Your goodness and faithfulness
Will guide me through
So why would I trust
In someone else

Couplet 3

Your Holy Spirit
Is always with me
In every valley
You’re always faithful
In the middle of the night
Your light is shining through
I find my rest in You Lord
And no one else

Refrain

I will not boast
In anything but You
My closest friend
Your word is always true
Your goodness and faithfulness
Will guide me through
So why would I trust
In someone else

Pont

There’s nothing better
You alone are better
There’s nothing better
You alone are better

Refrain

I will not boast
In anything but You
My closest friend
Your word is always true
Your goodness and faithfulness
Will guide me through
So why would I trust
In someone else

Pont

There’s nothing better
You alone are better
There’s nothing better
You alone are better

Pont

There’s nothing better
You alone are better
There’s nothing better

Refrain modifié

Better is one day in Your courts
Better is one day in Your house
Better is one day in Your courts
Than thousands elsewhere
