Goodly Heritage

Verse 1

The lines have fallen in Your grace,

You held my life in perfect place,

Before I knew, before I chose,

You marked my steps, You held me close.

Verse 2

Through every valley, every test,

You proved Yourself my portion, rest,

Not what I earned, not what I see,

But all I have is found in Thee.

Pre-Chorus

You are my lot, You are my stay,

My present help, my strength each day.

Chorus

You are my portion, You are my prize,

My hope, my song, my sacrifice,

The Lord my God, my righteousness,

I have a goodly heritage.

No earthly wealth, no fading breath,

Can steal the life You’ve promised me,

My soul declares with confidence:

I have a goodly heritage.

Verse 3

Your Word remains, Your truth stands sure,

Your covenant will still endure,

From age to age Your mercy runs,

Faithful God, what You’ve begun.

Pre-Chorus 2

My life is held within Your hands,

My future rests in Your commands.

Chorus

You are my portion, You are my prize,

My hope, my song, my sacrifice,

The Lord my God, my righteousness,

I have a goodly heritage.

No earthly wealth, no fading breath,

Can steal the life You’ve promised me,

My soul declares with confidence:

I have a goodly heritage.

Bridge (simple, repeatable)

You are enough, You are my gain,

You are my joy in joy and pain,

You are my God, forever faithful,

Forever mine, forever able.

(repeat / build)

Bridge 2 (optional, big lift)

The Lord is my inheritance,

My refuge and my confidence,

When all around is shaking sand,

I stand secure within Your hand.

Final Chorus

You are my portion, You are my prize,

My hope, my song, my sacrifice,

The Lord my God, my righteousness,

I have a goodly heritage.

I lift my voice, I lift my breath,

I trust You now, I trust You then,

For all my days, with no regret:

I have a goodly heritage.

Tag (soft)

The Lord is my portion…

And that is enough.
