The place where I live Had grown weary and dim, Surrounded by memories of strife, So I've found a new place Got a smile on my face I've moved into a brand new life. Got no time for repairs Nor to fix up the mess, Too much time has been wasted already, I've got people to know And new places to go, I'm moving real slow, but I'm steady. Every morning I rise, And I reach for the prize When I put on my new mode of travel, Yes I'm stepping inside, Of my Savior to hide, As I give Him my life to unravel. It's a great new ride As I'm looking outside At the world, through my Saviors eyes. And I see all the pain Of those trying in vain And I understand now why He cries. See, He bought something new And expects it to do. The new thing that He had in mind. But it hasn't, and so, He has asked me to go, Give instructions to all I can find. If your place is now cold And your life's feeling old You can move into God's greatest treasure It's your place in the Son Where your life has begun Where you'll find your joy without measure. |
