I want to go I want to leave your presence I won’t take the way You make me feel I won’t give in To your bribes I don’t need those things To survive
I won’t be a worldly person I shall not let it be so Your bribes will not work on me No they shall not You dwell upon material things I dwell upon the opposite I care about my soul Being materialistic shall set me back
So I set possessions Out of my mind Those earthly things Mean nothing I am sorrowful For those who dwell Upon those things So easily taken away To dwell upon those things Would put me in a melancholy mood They disappear quickly But my Savior Shall forever stay
