michael card - things we leave behind (live) lyrics

[verse 1: scott roley]
there sits simon, foolish and wise
proudly he’s tending his nets
jesus calls and the boats drift away
and all that he owns he forgets
but more than the nets he abandoned that day
he found that his pride was soon drifting away
and it’s hard to imagine the freedom we find
from the things we leave behind

[verse 2: michael card; michael card and scott roley]
and matthew was mindful of taking the tax
and pressing the people to pay
and hearing the call, he responded in faith
and followed the light and the way
and leaving the pеople so puzzled he found
thе greed in his heart was no longer around
and it’s hard to imagine the freedom we find
from the things we leave behind

[bridge: scott roley]
every heart needs to be set free
from possessions that hold on so tight
’cause freedom’s not found in the things that we own
it’s the power to do what is right
with jesus, our only possession
and giving becomes our delight
we can’t imagine the freedom we find
from the things we leave behind
[verse 3: michael card; michael card and scott roley]
we show a love for the world in our lives
by worshipping goods we possess
but jesus said, “lay all your treasures aside
and love god above all the rest”
’cause when we say no to the things of the world
we open our hearts to the love of the lord
and it’s hard to imagine the freedom we find
from the things we leave behind

[outro: michael card]
oh, and it’s hard to imagine the freedom we find
from the things that we leave behind
