Desiring God
Everybody worships something, anything's an idol
Galaxies and iPhone's light our path
Ain't it funny when the gadgets that we own
End up owning us back?
We get distracted by the small screen
Talking 'bout Wall Street
Watching all the pipe dreams go kaput
And where you go to find fulfillment
Is what you're gonna analyze, memorize
Realize we're never being satisfied by the world
We were made for the purpose of knowing a love supreme
But in the wireless wilderness, it's a fight just to get upstream
Bread of life, Living Water
The Shepherd sets the pace
Satisfies every hunger
So I don't have to crave
'Cause when I crave, I tend to wander
And tumble down the hill
Desiring God keeps me from going over once again
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Da-da, da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da, da-da-da
Some people idolize their family
Lovers, friends and offspring
People, just the thing to make them tick
But then when everybody fails you
Who is gonna empathize, harmonize
Realize you're never being satisfied by the world?
Are we living as captives
To the things we're afraid to lose
Giving power to creation
Hoping something will fill God's shoes
Bread of life, Living Water
The Shepherd sets the pace
Satisfies every hunger
So I don't have to crave
'Cause when I crave, I tend to wander
And tumble down the hill
Desiring God keeps me from going over once again
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (once again)
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Da-da, da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da, da-da-da
Anything could be a god
If I love it enough
Building altars by the way I place my trust
Keep me fastened to the rock, Lord
'Cause it's You that I want
All the oceans in the world can't fill my cup
Bread of life (oh, bread of life), Living Water
The Shepherd sets the pace
Satisfies every hunger
So I don't have to crave
'Cause when I crave I tend to wander
And I tumble down the hill
Desiring God keeps me from going over once again
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Galaxies and iPhone's light our path
Ain't it funny when the gadgets that we own
End up owning us back?
We get distracted by the small screen
Talking 'bout Wall Street
Watching all the pipe dreams go kaput
And where you go to find fulfillment

Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
