Theme: "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth." (Gen 1:1)
If all the world and its treasures are the works of God's creation, it only
stands to reason to put the Creator and not the created, first.
VS 1
So you think you got what it takes
To make life worth its weight in gold
And if you can't shake it you fake it,
Even if it will take your very soul

Now take a good look when the morning comes
People everywhere turning all around
They say, "I've been there, I done that
I need more, more, more
I need gold"

VS 2
We keep looking at our will
To get us what we feel is real
We scope the deep blue
We take a walk on the moon
But lose sight of redemption on a hill

Now there's a starlight shining bright above
We don't need to return to King Herod
We've been there, we done that
We got more, more, more
Then just gold

Spoken:
Now think about it...Ever since the world began
A new life would begin when another one ends
Some may call it a coincidence
That all of mother nature provides for brother man
Have you ever been atop Mount Everest
Or felt the colors of a Fijian sunset
Seen the fury of a storm and the failures of man
They all tell the story of the Master's plan

VS 3
There was a crippled man
Sittin' at the temple gate in town
And every single day
He was begging those who came for alms

But then Peter and John came walking along
And said, "Silver or gold we have none
But in His name we claim
More, much more then just gold"
