LIKE A SHADOW HAUNTING MY SUNNY DAY

LIFE’S IN A HURRY TO QUICKLY RUN AWAY

THE CHILD INSIDE IS NERVOUS AND SCARED

BUT I HEAR YOU, LORD I HEAR YOU

YOU SAY THERE’S NOTHING TO FEAR

AND THAT YOU’LL ALWAYS BE HERE

YOU WILL LEAVE ME NEVER

YOU’RE WITH ME NOW AND FOREVER

SO MUCH OF LIFE IS EMPTY ACTIVITY

WITH LITTLE ROOM FOR WHAT I CANNOT SEE

CAUGHT IN A WORLD OF MATERIAL CARES

BUT I HEAR YOU, LORD I HEAR YOU

CHORUS

IT’S NOT IN THE MONUMENTS OF MAN

BUT IN THE WONDERS OF YOUR MIGHTY HANDS

IN THE LOVE YOU GAVE SO FREELY ON THE CROSS

OH LORD I HEAR YOU, I HEAR YOU

CHORUS (2X)

What is life all about? You struggle to be successful, accepted and loved. Then one day, you perceive that all of your strivings lead to emptiness because society is concerned only with its own interests. If it does not benefit them, you are inconsequential. Humans are sinful people and cannot love unconditionally unless they receive power from the One who loves unconditionally, Jesus Christ. Submitting your will to God’s, allows you to tap into the power of the Holy Spirit. The need to be loved, accepted and to have a real purpose can now be fulfilled completely. When the King of the Universe loves you, why would you need the approval of broken mankind?

The apostle Paul demonstrated how to live successfully when he described a military relationship where interest is in pleasing the commanding officer and not getting entangled in civilian affairs (2 Ti 2:4). You are here for the purpose of serving God, not to pursue temporal pleasures (Rev 4:11 KJV) and will be rewarded eternally. The beauty of discovering this truth is that you will begin to enjoy your life now and forever.
