Lyrics
I'm don't want to lose my ground
I'm not going to spin my wheels
I'm don't want to waste my days on the ways of the world
I don't want to be deceived
Never want to cherish sin
I don't want to be a slave to the ways of the world
I got too far to go
Just to spend my time on the trivial
Such a long way to run
To carry the weight
I set my heart and mind on things above
Not on things below
Leaving it all behind for perfect love
Letting go of the ways of the world
I don't want to trade the truth
Sure don't want to feed my flesh
Choking on the bitter taste of the ways of the world
Trying hard to keep my pace
Taking up the cross of Christ
Can't afford my spirit dazed by the ways of the world
I've got too far to climb
Just to lose my eyes to the peripheral
When there's so little time
And so much at stake
I set my heart and mind on things above
Not on things below
Leaving it all behind for perfect love
Letting go of the ways of the world
This world entices you
This world will promise you the moon
This world will one day waste away
I set my heart and mind on things above
Not on things below
Leaving it all behind for perfect love
Letting go of the ways of the world
I set my heart and mind on things above
Not on things below
Leaving it all behind for perfect love
Letting go of the ways of the world
