What We Want and What They Need
Why worry about things we don’t have
Things that we’re unable to get
Is not life more than earthly treasures?
And our faith more than mounting debt
God has given us something more precious
Of more value than priceless stone
Nothing that the world can produce
Compares to worshipping at His throne
We can’t take earthly treasures with us
What we have now will remain
So why struggle so hard to possess
What is temporal and subject to change
The kingdom of God is what matters
And the souls left to die alone
The lost and the lonely living in despair
Those that have no place to call home
Just look around at the hopelessness
The state our society is in
A world untouched by God’s generous love
Drowning in the darkness of sin
It gives us something to focus on
As we open our eyes and see
For God is screaming out for the lost
With tears saying ‘come unto me’
And we His messengers must go to them
And show them His love and grace
For nothing will ever change in our world
If we don’t put action to our faith
