WORLDLY RICHES, FAME, AND SUCCESS

WEREN’T ENOUGH TO LIVE FOR

HE WAS EMPTY

IN THE GOSPEL HE TRIED TO FIND THE ONE

WHO GIVES MEANING TO LIFE,

THE TRUE SENSE OF LIFE

AND THEN ONE DAY HIS MOTHER SPOKE

HE UNDERSTOOD THAT TO BE PERFECT,

PERFECT LIKE JESUS

‘TAKE UP THE CROSS OF MERCY, ARMS OPEN WIDE,

AND FOLLOW JESUS AND STAY BEHIND HIM,

REALLY CHOOSE HIM.

WALKING THROUGH THE CITIES HE PROCLAIMED

THE LIVING WORD OF WISDOM

AND THE SPIRIT OF LIFE

EVERY TEPID HEART BURST FORTH WITH FLAMES

THE GOSPEL LIKE A FIRE

BECOMES DESIRE

AND THROUGH THE WITNESS OF SAINT PAUL

HE UNDERSTOOD THAT TO BE PERFECT,

PERFECT LIKE JESUS

TO LIVE ONE’S LIFE WITH BURNING LOVE, THE LOVE FOR CHRIST,

AND THROUGH HIS CROSS BECOME A BRAND NEW LIGHT

SO RUN WITH YOUR HEARTS ON FIRE

GO, RUNNING TOWARD GOD

TOWARD OTHERS

LIKE I DO

BE TRULY SAINTS, SHINE LIKE SAPPHIRES

GO, RUNNING TOWARD GOD

TOWARD OTHERS

LIKE NO OTHER

COME, RUNNING WITH ME

WORLDLY RICHES, FAME, AND SUCCESS

AREN'T ENOUGH TO LIVE FOR

THEY LEAVE ME EMPTY

IN THE GOSPEL'S WORDS I CAN FIND

A BETTER WAY TO SPEND LIFE

AND MAKE SENSE OF LIFE

AND I'LL BE STRONGER, FEAR NO LONGER, YES I'LL TRY

TO BE LIKE JESUS

AND LIKE NO OTHER

JUST LIVE MY LIFE WITH BURNING LOVE, THE LOVE FOR CHRIST,

AND WITH HIS CROSS BECOME A BRAND NEW LIGHT
