They Got What They Wanted

They got what they wanted
But lost what they had
The story of many
So tragic, so sad.

We must seek God, alone
In the quietness, and pray
Ask God, to guide us
To draw near, every day.

We are ever in search
Of the key to life
As our scientists, research
And ideas are rife.

With no home of His own
Jesus preached thro’ His Land
Was so driven by love
As he followed God’s plan.

In Jesus’ suffering, God’s path
To bless fallen man
In His cross, our daily dying
God has shown us, His plan.

Having so much
Yet feeling so empty
Ever needy, and searching
Amidst our great plenty.

So, to live for The Master
For His glory and praise
Be faithful, single-minded
Your heart, upward raised.

Being godly, contented
Brings forth great gain
With food and clothing
We’re contented, remain.

But, for those seeking Truth
Follow Jesus, and His cross
Find new life, eternal
Must count all else, as loss.

So repent and return
Submit to God, full of favor
Desires only our good
Obey Christ, as your Savior.
