If Heaven Was Never Promised to Me

You may ask me why do You serve the Lord

Is it just for heaven's gain

Or to walk those mighty streets of gold

Or to hear the angels sing

Is it just to drink from that fountain

That never shall run dry

Or is it to live forever, ever, and ever

In that sweet old by and by

But if heaven never was promised to me

Neither God's promise to live eternally

It's been worth just having the Lord in my life

I was livin' in a world of darkness

But he brought me the light

If there were never any streets of gold

Neither a land where we will never grow old

It's been worth just having the Lord in my life

I was livin' in a world of darkness

But He brought me the light

He's been my closest friend down through the years

And every time I cry you know He dries all my tears

It's been worth just having the Lord in my life

I was livin' in a world of darkness

But He brought me the light

You know I was livin' in a world of darkness

But He brought me the light

I was livin' in a world of darkness

But He brought me the light
