(from the Brazilian hymnal by Lineu Formighieri Soares)
1
There’s plenty of beauty around in this world,
Astonishing places for mankind to see.
So many miraculous wonders of nature,
Where any human being would love to be.
But out of all these lovely places,
The one resembling paradise
Is where a sinner kneels down to pray,
At the feet of Jesus Christ.
Refrain
For the best place in the world
Is at the feet of Jesus Christ.
There is healing in His presence;
He’s the Way, the Truth, the Light.
In His grace, I find the true source
Of an everlasting life.
For the best place in the world
Is at the feet of Jesus Christ.

We dream of success, we crave for more comfort;
We long for a life of ease and delight.
But all we may own is empty and senseless
If anything but Christ is in control of our lives.
When I feel God’s endless power,
When His peace reigns in my soul,
I will be glad, no matter where I may be,
Because I am at the best place in the world.

There’s no better place in this world
Than at the feet of Jesus Christ.
In His grace, I find the true source
Of an everlasting life.
