For sale, one life,
lots of miles,
some smiles, some pain, some
strife,
but all in all not a bad life
I used it hard it's all I
knew
I pushed and pulled and drug
it through
More things I'd change than
I would not
I'd have smiled more and not
have fought
to keep what wasn't worth
a thing
but even that's worth remembering
Wellllll.....sometimes the
pushing and pulling was fun
and we laughed afterwards
at the things we had done
On second thought, it's not
for sale
I couldn't sell such a precious
thing
with miles and smiles and
pain and strife
all in all it's a pretty good
life
You see, now that I think
instead of react
it's a pretty good life and
that's a fact
I had someone dear cling tight
to me
I had someone near do right
by me
I had someone bear my wrongs
for me
I had someone fight and be
strong for me
I think the sale I'd like to
make
Is purchase the vision to
look ahead
...and trust I might fight....but
only to do right
...and see the miles and smiles
and pain and strife
Not as impediments..... but
as my life
No, it's not for sale I couldn't
bear it
But, tell you what... I'm
willing to share it
The more I look, The more
there is
Forgoodnesssake there's more
than I can use
Look, take what you need any
part ...
Just choose
look take just a little, if
you're not sure
and when you are - take some
more
It's worth nothing to me unless
you do
Hey! Take it all there's lots
more where that came from
It came to me from the Father
by way of the Son
No, my life's not for sale
It was purchased before
and given back - a gift -
by the Son restored.
