Kind friends, I want to tell you,
Because I love your soul:
No doubt you've been converted,
But this ain't ever been told.
Some people they'll try to fool you.
There's nothing else to do,
But Jesus Christ, my saviour,
He got better things for you.
CHORUS:
He's got better things for you,
And no one on earth can do.
He's got the Holy Ghost and the fire,
Sure can make you true.
He got better things for you,
No one on earth can do.
Oh, place my mind on Jesus.
He's got better things for you
Cornelius he was humble.
He prayed to God always,
But that was not sufficient.
He had to give Him praise.
God sent to him an angel
And he told him what to do,
'Cause there he's awaitin' in glory
With better things for you.
Mary was a virgin.
She birthed the Son of God,
But that was not sufficient.
She had to be well-shorn.
God sent her to Jerusalem,
And there He made her new,
'Cause there she's awaitin' in glory
With better things for you.
