Vanity

I’ve handled wealth I’ve handled money and all I got was vanity
All my precious time wasn’t used to build Christianity
Only based on fame taking my own popularity
Chasing around the wind just to get my prosperity

Now! Am ready to take the cross
Christ died for me and rose
He never sleeps, slumber or doze
Just for me not to lose my course

You shine your light upon my path 
To the wicked you take your wrath
You taught me all the Bible truth
With your word you filled up my mouth

Take me to another level, another level
Where hell will not prevail, not prevail
Chasing the demons away and the devil, and the devil
Giving all the lost and sick a revival, a revival

My creator my potter
Connect me to your one and only alter
Things to be better
Connect me to your heart and living water
Life to be sweeter
Connect me to my guide and only mentor
Whatever we face doesn’t matter... It’s you at the center.
