Different Way

Many believe that we should store
Our treasures on the ocean's floor
Deep below the surface
Where no-one else can go

Many do good to be seen by all
Announce it loud on a megaphone
The praise of man their motive
But that's the only thing they'll score

I know, every single thing that I can say is mine
When my life is over, I gotta leave it behind
I made sure my treasure's on the other side

No no no no, there's a different way
It goes against what all the others say
The only way by which we'll be saved
The truth the life today, His way

We look at each other's lives
We criticize and analyze
Instead of looking on the inside
And see the rotten things we hide

We marry with open back doors
In case we do not get what we bargain for
We swear by heaven and earth
But our 'yes' ain't 'yes' and our 'no' ain't 'no'

Holy matrimony is a sign from above
To show all those around us the meaning of love
One day we will marry our maker

No no no no, there's a different way
It goes against what all the others say
The only way by which we'll be saved
The truth the life today, His way

When the wind begins to blow
And the waves crash down on the life you know
Does the sand erode beneath you?
Is there a rock on which you stand?

On a mountainside long ago
The Saviour of the world we know, said:
"The broad and easy road is not like the narrow one that leads you home"

I know, every single thing that I can say is mine
When my life is over, I gotta leave it behind
I made sure my treasure's on the other side

No no no no, there's a different way
It goes against what all the others say
The only way by which we'll be saved
The truth the life today, His way

No no no no, there's a different way
It goes against what all the others say
The only way by which we'll be saved
The truth the life today, His way
