In God We Trust
Self determination the Gospel of the American dream
A life trapped on the path of unending greed
Craving more and more our hearts will never be satisfied
When will we see that all we need is God to survive
Always wanting more we have become slaves to the desires of the flesh
Blessed more than we should ever deserve how long until we see the truth
Surrounded by the poor and the weak we choose to serve the idol of success
How foolish can we be
Money can't break the chains of death
Our brothers need our help yet we choose to ignore their cries
No compassion no reflection of the love of Christ
They reach out to us and silently we watch them fall
We are the body of Christ, how have we forgotten how to love
Always wanting more we have become slaves to the desires of the flesh
Blessed more than we should ever deserve how long until we see the truth
Surrounded by the poor and the weak we choose the idol of success
How foolish can we be
Money can't break the chains of death
You can't serve two masters, no longer shall we serve our greed
We will be the change a force that takes this world by storm
Die to yourself, take up your cross and follow me
We will move our hearts from this world to our King
Draw near to God and he will draw near to you
Cleanse your hands you sinners and purify your hearts
You double minded be wretched and mourn and weep
Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom
Humble yourselves before the Lord and he will exalt you
Humble yourselves before the Lord and he will exalt you
Humble yourselves before the Lord and he will exalt you
A life trapped on the path of unending greed
Craving more and more our hearts will never be satisfied
When will we see that all we need is God to survive
Always wanting more we have become slaves to the desires of the flesh
Blessed more than we should ever deserve how long until we see the truth
Surrounded by the poor and the weak we choose to serve the idol of success
How foolish can we be
Money can't break the chains of death
Our brothers need our help yet we choose to ignore their cries
No compassion no reflection of the love of Christ
They reach out to us and silently we watch them fall
We are the body of Christ, how have we forgotten how to love
Always wanting more we have become slaves to the desires of the flesh
Blessed more than we should ever deserve how long until we see the truth
Surrounded by the poor and the weak we choose the idol of success
How foolish can we be
Money can't break the chains of death
You can't serve two masters, no longer shall we serve our greed
We will be the change a force that takes this world by storm
Die to yourself, take up your cross and follow me
We will move our hearts from this world to our King
Draw near to God and he will draw near to you
Cleanse your hands you sinners and purify your hearts
You double minded be wretched and mourn and weep
Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom
Humble yourselves before the Lord and he will exalt you
Humble yourselves before the Lord and he will exalt you
Humble yourselves before the Lord and he will exalt you
