This old world is gonna try
And sell you all kinda stuff
No matter how much you got
They say it?s not good enough.
You gotta buy and barter
Or you will never be whole.
Sometimes they want your money,
Other times they want your soul.
But it?s a lie,
And I ain?t buying it.
What I?ve got inside,
There?s no denying it.
Nothing in this world
Compares to You.
Only You are worthy,
Only You are true.
Everywhere you look today
People are running in and out
Chasing dreams, or their own tails,
After stuff they can?t live without.
Still livin? in their prisons
Made of fear and doubt and greed,
Wonderin? why they?re gettin? nowhere
Hoping one day to be freed.
People! Please, stop and listen
To the thing I?m telling you.
You?ll never find the answer
Running around the way you do.
There is One standing ready,
Willing to carry your load
He?s already paid your debt
When He walked that Calvary road.
He is my Lord
We have decided it,
Best thing in my life,
There?s no denying it.
Nothing in this world
Compares to You,
Only You are worthy,
Only You are true.
