Christian Worship Hymn With Lyrics “You Must Place Belief in God Above All Else”

I

If you wish to believe,
if you want to gain God and the satisfaction of Him,
if you don’t endure the pain and put in the effort,
you will not be able to achieve these things.
You have heard much preaching.
But even if you’ve heard,
it does not mean the words are yours.
You must absorb them, transform them
into something that belongs to you.
You will only gain from the belief of God,
if you know it as the greatest thing in life,
more important than what you may eat or drink,
what you may wear, or anything else on earth.

II

Apply these words to your life, bring them to your existence,
allow them to guide you in the way you live,
bringing true value and meaning to your life,
then it will be worth you hearing these words.
If God’s words don’t bring upturns and value to your life,
there would be no point in listening, yeah.
Oh, you will only gain from the belief of God,
if you know it as the greatest thing in life,
more important than what you may eat or drink,
what you may wear, or anything else on earth, yeah.

III

If you only believe when you have the time,
unable to give all your attention to belief,
if you always simply work to make do at sixes and sevens,
you will gain nothing, oh, nothing.
Oh, you will only gain from the belief of God,
if you know it as the greatest thing in life,
more important than what you may eat or drink,
what you may wear, or anything else, yeah.
You will only gain from the belief of God,
if you know it as the greatest thing in life,
more important than what you may eat or drink,
what you may wear, or anything else on earth,
what you may wear, or anything else on earth,
what you may wear, or anything else on earth,
anything else on earth.

I do know belief in God...but believing His words and promises, and advice and direction, are the most imp things in my life. :)
One could start with ONE instruction...Seek the Kingdom of Heaven first... belief THAT alone ....and it is the
most imp thing you will ever DO! :) Thanks for the reminder!

Hi Finesse, (Oh I see you're new here, well, welcome!!) Toronto, eh? I have a special place in my heart for memories there...and the clean city itself.

Really what else is there? Ok, I will speak for me only. ;)
I am self employed...the economy goes up and down, rem 2008? Ha! So it is easier for me not
having a secure job with a salary and increase$ and paid vacations and sick leaves paid...an employer adding to my retirement...
so to really rely on my Father is more necessary and the results are seen each day , month and year.
Someone could disagree, but from my shoes...this is my experience...that I can NOT ever believe in this world.
I can only believe in God and his words.
Which words am I talking about? These: I have come for you to have an abundant life...Do not worry, Be anxious for nothing,
Ask, believe and receive, Cast your cares, Focus on the things above and not the things on the earth.
...there are SO many.
Delight in the Lord, Be still...
I believe, 100% trust, rely on and depend on my Heavenly Father like a hand to hold in a crowded Carnival as a 4 yr old.
This place has nothing for me...(that's not pessimistic, it's a lovely place) ;)...but I only want Him, here or in the Hereafter, ya know?
What is anything else in comparison!
C'mon...everything ends and is temporary...God is the Only One. Love for Him and His Love in return and vice versa.
Could anything be better? It's like a completed circle.
:)

Great song. I love the above verse as it just reminds me of how He blesses us with Himself! So many say they have "faith" and in the same breath complain that there is nothing to be done in their situation...because they are looking with their carnal eyes!!! I find it so exciting to see how He works...has grown my faith each and every prayer He answers..and, He answers all of my prayers ♥
The more we empty ourselves OF ourselves, the more He fills us with Himself...He is as GOOD as it will ever get ♥

As of the last few years, it has occurred to me that, there is a huge difference between "Christian music" and "Worship music". To myself, anyhow.
I see contemporary Christian music mostly for the edification of us followers of "The Way"... Such as songs like (one of my faves) "You Say" by Lauren Daigle. And, there are many more I love but...then we have "Worship" music which ONLY Glorifies God...not that all contemporary Christian music is lacking true Worship but, I would say most of them speak of what God can do for US...to me, "Worship" music is what we do for Him and His sake.
Here is a Contemporary song...my newest favorite...I think it is beautiful ♥
