Never the Same

NEVER THE SAME


IF A PRIZE YOU DID WIN
WOULD YOU TURN IT DOWN MY FRIEND
IF THEY WERE HANDING OUT MONEY TODAY
WOULD YOU TURN AND WALK AWAY

CONTEST PRIZES PEOPLE DO CLAIM
EVERYONE WANTS THEIR MOMENT OF FAME
TO THEM LIFE IS JUST A GAME
ONE  DAY LIFE WON'T BE THE SAME

GOD IS STANDING AT THE DOOR
HE OFFERS SO MUCH MORE
ETERNAL LIFE AND BLESSINGS GALORE
BUT HIM YOU JUST IGNORE

DO NOT TURN GOD AWAY
LET HIM IN YOUR LIFE TO STAY
THE GIFTS HE OFFERS CLAIM
YOU WILL NEVER BE THE SAME
