Verse 1
If you ask me what life’s all about,
I won’t talk fame or fortune, I’ve got no doubt.
It’s the life from above, shining pure and true,
The kind of peace this world can’t give to you.
Chorus
What’s the use of the world in your hands,
If your soul slips away like grains of sand?
No riches, no title, no silver or gold
Can buy back the heart or make you whole.
So while you’re chasing dreams that glow,
Don’t forget to feed your soul.
Verse 2
The rich man feasted, dressed in pride,
While Lazarus longed just to survive.
But when the lights dimmed and time was done,
It wasn’t the rich man who saw the sun.
Chorus
What’s the use of the world in your hands,
If your soul slips away like grains of sand?
No riches, no title, no silver or gold
Can buy back the heart or make you whole.
So while you’re chasing dreams that glow,
Don’t forget to feed your soul.
Bridge
I’m not saying don’t reach for the sky,
Build your life, go ahead and fly.
But in all you earn and all you do,
Let Heaven’s light keep shining through.
Final Chorus
What’s the use of the world in your hands,
If your soul slips away like grains of sand?
So build your house, but don’t let go
Of the only thing that makes you whole.
While you’re climbing, chasing, playing your role—
Make sure you’re finding rest for your soul.
