Lyrics
Temporary Things
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
What's that rounf my ankles...
Are they vines of worldliness
Binding up my soul in a barren wilderness
It's a day to day struggle to survive for pleasure and things
Open there's nothing...
A treasure with wings
Things come to steal steal your heart away
Right before your eyes your light starts to fade
And you wonder what it is your looking for
I don't want to live for tempoprary things
When I think back on the cross...
And the man who gave his life
I want to live for more than things that rust or die
I don't want to struggle for those things that pass away
I want to live my life for the things that never fade
And you wonder what it is you're looking for
I don't want to live for tempoprary things
