Zema - Gain The World


Song Lyrics

Biblical Reference

Gain the world and give away your soul Matthew 16:25-27 - For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find it. For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.
All that glitters is not gold
Reach the top and the bottom drops out
That's not what life is all about

People of the forward stampede
Chasing their mirage of security
Souls trampled in the dust
Trying to serve every lust

Toys of excess
Feed on emptiness
Yes you have it under control
Still there's that gaping hole inside
Shiny distractions
Don't bring satisfaction, no way

Learn the easy way or learn the hard way
Money won't concern you on your dying day
Had it all and seen enough
The time has come to look up
