Then Sings My Soul – What Could Be Better by 33 Miles

Posted on June 13, 2009 by Fran Hart


It’s been a great week. The AWI conference was “all that and more”. Squeezing the sessions into an already busy week was a challenge, but the rewards were well worth the effort. Being able to walk out of my corporate cubicle into the work environment drenched in the Spirit, spreading the Spirit, spreading the joy and wonder of God’s love by simply being open – what a blessing! It’s what I imagine when I think of living out God’s kingdom here on earth.

None of the petty stuff, the office politics, the immediate “crises” of today’s emergencies…none of that is what’s important. Living in the Spirit, listening to God, walking with Jesus – that’s what’s important. It carries me when I’m too tired to walk. It lets me dance on the streets of gold in my heart and soul at the end of a week of meetings and conference calls and all of the patience I can muster. What Could be Better?

What Could Be Better
by 33 Miles

I’ve heard it said today
Is all we’re given
Tomorrow may not come
So you better start living
I guess it all depends
On your point of view

Pardon me if I
Just don’t listen
To everything the world
Say’s I’m missing
There’s nothing here and now
I’m gonna hold on to

Chorus:
I’m living in the days ahead
I’m already dancing on the streets of gold
Can’t stop celebrating in my soul
I’m living in the days ahead
Nothing on earth could ever compare
Can’t wait for the day when I get there
When I see Jesus face to face
Tell me what could be better
Tell me what could be better

If home is where the heart is then I’m in Heaven
It’s the promise of tomorrow
That I’ve been given
Who is waiting there I am living for

He’s everything I love
And I believe in
And I can hardly wait
Just to see Him
And hear Him say well done
I couldn’t ask for more

Chorus:

Life is full of ups and downs
Inside outs, round and rounds
Can’t blame me for dreaming about it

Chorus:

    I like these lines, but they are hard aren't it?–"I’ve heard it said today
    Is all we’re given
    Tomorrow may not come
    So you better start living
    I guess it all depends
    On your point of view" Thank you for the reminder! Blessings-Amanda:)
