lyrics

save your pity for the kids with the money / ‘cause they’re feeling so empty inside / they try filling the hole, but they’re ignoring their souls / until they grow old and die / and they never did get it right

they buy everything they see in the magazines / they’ve got the biggest screens and they’re hi-def / but they missed the point of life, nothing money can buy / his name is Jesus Christ, he is it

save your breath for the kids who’ve got sex / ‘cause they are at their best when they’re clothed / they’re so preoccupied with their selfish desires / that they can’t see the fire up the road / and it’s burning down their souls

they’ve been to every site they’re little fingers can find / looking for life across the line / but it’s never enough, ‘cause we’re created for love / not this cheap knock-off that they’re trying

save your prayers for the kids in the chairs / the ones who are there on Sundays and Wednesdays / they think they’ll get by on religion just fine / but they’re running out of time to be saved / ‘cause once you’re dead it’s too late

they know the right words, and they sing the right verse / but just ‘cause it looks good, don’t make it right / you’ve gotta get right with God and surrender your heart / accept the free blood of Jesus Christ

there is only one reason, that I keep on singing / it’s ‘cause I know he’s living in me / his love is so pure, his forgiveness secure / his mercy endures my treachery
