And by Luke 16:13, 1Timothy 6:6-10
Chorus:
Listen to the Voice that knows you be name
Don't listen to men, their call is not the same
What good is found in fortune and fame
It's just a mortal game
Verse 1:
When Jesus walked on this sinking sod
He said you can't please men while serving God
No, it doesn't work that way
It all depends on the choice that you make
He wants to lead every step you take, so...
Chorus:
Listen to the Voice that knows you be name
Don't listen to men, their call is not the same
What good is found in fortune and fame
It's just a mortal game
Verse 2:
Those who listen and follow the King
Will be received into Heaven on angel's wings
By the nail-pierced hands of the One who died
To see that the debt was satisfied, so...
Chorus:
Listen to the Voice that knows you be name
Don't listen to men, their call is not the same
What good is found in fortune and fame
It's just a mortal game
Verse 3:
Through trusting Christ one can only know
The true freedom that comes from letting go
Of all that you own, your life and your breath
To gain eternal life through His death
Chorus:
Listen to the Voice that knows you be name
Don't listen to men, their call is not the same
What good is found in fortune and fame
It's just a mortal game
What good is found
What good is found in fortune and fame
It's just a mortal game
