Pat Barrett's song "Better" is a contemporary worship track that celebrates the unconditional love of God. The lyrics emphasize that God's love is not based on our actions or words, as He loved us even before we knew Him. The song expresses freedom and security found in this love, declaring that nothing can change God's heart toward us. It highlights themes of identity, belonging, and the joy of being God's child. The repeated affirmation "I am loved" serves as a powerful reminder of God's steadfast affection, bringing peace and confidence to the believer.

I've never known a love like this before
Never thought that I could be so sure
Not a fear or anxious thought
Is enough to change Your heart
I am loved
I am loved
And there's nothing I can do to change Your mind
I am loved
And it's more than every joy I've felt combined
No greater treasure
Than knowing I am Yours and You are mine
I am loved
And I've never been this free in all my life
Before my life began You knew my name
And You're with me every step along the way
You're my refuge and my home
You're the place where I belong
I am loved
I am loved
And there's nothing I can do to change Your mind
I am loved
And it's more than every joy I've felt combined
No greater treasure
Than knowing I am Yours and You are mine
I am loved
And I've never been this free in all my life
I've never been this free
Oh I've never been this free in all my life (I've never been this free yeah)
I've never been this free, free
Before I said anything
Before I did anything
Before I knew anything
I was loved by You, yes our Lord
Before I said anything (Before I said anything)
Before I did anything (Before I did anything)
Before I knew anything
I was loved, I was loved by You, my Lord
I am loved
And there's nothing I can do to change Your mind
I am loved
And it's more than every joy I've felt combined
No greater treasure
Than knowing I am Yours and You are mine
I am loved
And I've never been this free in all my life
Before I said anything (Before I said anything)
Before I did anything (Before I did anything)
Before I knew anything
I was loved by You, yes I was
Before I said anything (Before I said anything)
Before I did anything
Before I knew anything
I was loved by You
I was loved by You
And You loved me too
Too much to leave me where You found me, yeah
I've got everything I need 'cause I'm loved by You
(I've got everything, everything, everything I need)
Everything I need, everything I need
Love, joy, peace, I'm free
Love, joy, peace, I'm free
Love, joy, peace, I'm free
I'm free, I'm free, I'm free, yeah
Who the Son sets free, oh, they're free indeed
