Michael Card - Things We Leave Behind lyrics
There sits Simon, so foolishly wise Proudly he's tending his nets Then Jesus calls, and the boats drift away And all that he owns he forgets But more than the nets he abandoned that day, He found that his pride was soon drifting away And it's hard to imagine the freedom we find From the things we leave behind Matthew was mindful of taking the tax, Pressing the people to pay Hearing the call,he responded in faith Followed the Light and the Way And leaving the people so puzzled he found, The greed in his heart was no longer around And it's hard to imagine the freedom we find From the things we leave behind Every heart needs to be set free, From possessions that hold it so tight 'Cause freedom's not found in the things that we own, It's the power to do what is right With Jesus, our only possession, Then giving becomes our delight We can't imagine the freedom we find From the things we leave behind We show a love for the world in our lives By worshipping goods we possess Jesus said lay all your treasures aside And love God above all the rest 'Cause when we say ”no!” to the things of the world We open our hearts to the love of the Lord And its hard to imagine the freedom we find From the things we leave behind |
