Musical Chairs

There is only one thing that you can control in this world As It's to whom that we sing that our soul will be unfurled You are completely powerless over all that you do control But it will really become a mess the day you lose your soul Just a heartbeat away standing on the other side of the door Lord teach us to pray so that this fact we will no longer ignore Just like a musical chair one day your song will no longer play Becoming completely aware of exactly where you chose to lay In just a second or even less everything could be taken away It's only the Lord who does bless don't take lightly what I say Even written down for all to see as the endless clues abound What you couldn't afford, given free, oh how sweet the sound The only thing that you can control that nothing can take away Is who you're praising in your soul each morning, night and day Now that music is playing but we all know that its going to end On my mind it's been weighing and this message I had to send John 16:33 I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.”
