Vanity of Vanities
stop spreading its disease as you do what you please
get down on your knees and let the king of kings in
come worship the Lord for we are his people the flock that he shepherds
love not the world neither anything that is in the world
the lust of the flesh & the pride of life is not of the Lord
then the world will vanish away but he that does the will of God last forever
hidden in a tiny treasure of your heart
as morning breaks I look to you
to be my strength this day God
The Holy Spirit needs to take up residence within your soul
my body hides for you like a dry weary land without water
so i gaze upon you in your sanctuary to see your strength & glory
with your love is better then life my lips will speak of your praises
I will bless you all of my life in your name I will lift up my hands
morning breaks I look to you to be my strength this day
wash me & I shall be whiter then snow
I have seen what this world has to offer me
it can't hold a wing nor a prayer
to what my father did when he held his hands in the air
many today are living a great lie just to get by
Vanity of vanities is not a good reality
there's always a price for sin
actions in which humans rebel against God.
Miss there true purpose for there lives
Surrender instead to the prince of the air more then God
cause all there deeds were evil
my sacrifice is a contrite my humble heart you will not splurge
turn your ear Lord and give answers for i am poor & needy
preserve my life let me be faithful & true
you are my God have mercy Lord
I cry to you night and day
give joy to your servant Lord
you are good & forgiving
full of love to all who call upon your name
give heed Lord to thy praises
tend to the sound of my prayer
we all wander as lost sheep in are living pasture of plenty
my soul lies down so come all you thirsty your soul shall be refreshed
come all the afflicted & be healed
if the light of his love be at are side
