about

From 1 Timothy 6:6-10, 17-19.

lyrics

You got clothes, you got food
But that ain’t enough for you
You wanna be filthy rich as well
But that’s a slippery slope to hell

It’s a snare, it’s a trap
You oughtta know better than that
It’ll plunge you down to despair
And I promise you it won’t care

Of all kinds of evil the root but we
Dress it up in a three-piece suit
The love of money, the dollar bill
Will take you pris’ner against your will

Took nothing in, nothing out
So money’s not what it’s all about
So forget your pride, and share your stash
And store up some credit that lasts

Of all kinds of evil the root but we
Dress it up in a three-piece suit
The love of money, the dollar bill
Will take you pris’ner against your will

Don’t set your hope on the bottom line
But on the God who richly provides
Cause what you sow is what you reap
And you know that grace ain’t cheap
