I never took the time to look around
Until I realize, in despair I’m found

I fret and worry like Peter on the sea
Until to Jesus Christ, I forever plea

Then to heaven, aye my heart is free
Now in this world, my heart no longer be

I set my gaze to greener rolling hills
And feel His Word how my lungs it fills and fills

I look up to azure skies
To think about how the angel flies

Eyes are sure to find a budding rose
How Christ’s love it grows and grows

In the morn, wetness of the dew
Hearing birds sing so lovely and I'm all new

Try to think not as much of me
Just want to love them all no matter who they be

Most important thing rings sure within my soul
Christ lives within my heart; and it is very full

No matter how convincing pleasures this world are
I know for certain, they won’t get me very far

To some I’ve got a lot more than I need
To others I have nothing and very pathetic indeed

What they say doesn’t matter, because I know I got it all
Everything I need, because God is always there to catch me when I fall
