Lyrics

The Best Years of my Life

I’ve walked through some valleys, I’ve climbed a few hills
Gone through some trials, had a few spills
But these wrinkled hands tell me, as days slip away
There’s much more ahead than what I see today

I’ve laughed with my children, said goodbye to some kin
Stood by a gravestone, and wept with a friend
I have a Promise from God, I know
There’s a home up yonder where I’ll be made whole

The best years of my life are ahead of me in glory
Where I get the sing the Old Old Story
When He calls my name, I'll be ready to go
The best years of my life are ahead of me I know


So, I won’t fear the evening, I won’t dread the night
There’s a bright home awaiting past this failing light
Soon I'll be going, never more shall I roam
Every step I’m taking leads me closer to home

The best years of my life are ahead of me in glory
Where I get the sing the Old Old Story
When He calls my name, I'll be ready to go
The best years of my life are ahead of me I know
