There's always a better way
There's always a bridge that needs crossing
There's always the straight and the narrow
The wide and the shallow
But I know that Your guiding me
And the best is yet to come
You've given me hope for tomorrow
And I know someday

I'll wake up to find
Your glory defined
And I will finally bow at Your feet
I will lift up Your name, in honor and praise
When I cross over Jordan, I know that I'll be running home to You

It's always the simple things
It's always the obvious, that crashes over me
It's always in front of me
It helps me to remember
That this is what I lived for
And I can't wait

until I wake up to find
Your glory defined
And I will finally bow at Your feet
I will lift up Your name, in honor and praise
When I cross over Jordan, I know that I'll be running home to You

There's never a question in Your message
Never a moment without Your presence
There's never a doubt in my mind

That I'll wake up to find
Your glory defined
And I will finally bow at Your feet
I will lift up Your name, in honor and praise
When I cross over Jordan, I know that I'll be running home

And I'll wake up to find
Your glory defined
And I will finally bow at Your feet
I will lift up Your name, in honor and praise
When I cross over Jordan, I know that I'll be running home to You

And I'll be running home to You
