Lyrics
Well, you can have anything that money can buy
But I'll tell you right now, that isn't gonna satisfy
And you, you might have a pretty face
But in God's sight, don't you be a disgrace
Well, you, you can have a mind that's intelligent
But in your heart, you know you're not really content
And you, yeah, you might think you're pretty tough
But do a round with Jesus, and you'll know when you've had enough
Jesus gave us more than we deserve
In His love our lives have been preserved
The glitter of the world distracts our minds
From the real dilemma of mankind
Of mankind
Well, you, you can give it away to charity
But if you don't know the Lord, you're still a spiritual refugee
And you, can have all the faith on earth
But if you don't have His love your faith doesn't
have any worth
Set your thoughts on all that God has done
He gave to us His only Son
A place for us in heaven is prepared
How can anything on earth compare
Tell me how
Well, you, you can be locked in a prison cell
But if you found the Lord, yeah, brother, you're doing well
And you, you might come from a poor family
But if you all know Jesus, your happiness is guaranteed
