Lyrics If Heaven Never Was Promised to Me - Heritage Singers

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
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
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
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
