Nous savons, du reste, que toutes choses concourent au bien de ceux qui aiment Dieu, de ceux qui sont appelés selon son dessein. Romains 8:28

The Cares Of This World

The cares of this world pull at my feet
My heart is divided by the things that I see
My plans and ambitions have a piece of my soul
But it’s nothing compared
To the love my God shows      

And I Lay It All Down at the foot of the cross
Till every step that I take is the will of the Father
I lay it all down let the Spirit have its way  
And this life that I live I live it for Jesus

When I look at my future in this world that I face
I must remember to keep Christ in His place
Climbing higher and higher in pursuit of the
crown
I surrender this flesh that keeps holding me down
