1
There sits Simon,
2
So foolishly wise
3
Proudly he's tending his nets
4
Then Jesus calls,
5
And the boats drift away
6
All that he owns he forgets
7
More than the nets
8
He abandoned that day,
9
He found that his pride was soon drifting away
10
It's hard to imagine the freedom we find
11
From the things we leave behind
12
Matthew was mindful
13
Of taking the tax,
14
Pressing the people to pay
15
Hearing the call,
16
He responded in faith
17
Followed the Light and the Way
18
Leaving the people
19
So puzzled he found,
20
The greed in his heart
21
Was no longer around and
22
It's hard to imagine
23
The freedom we find
24
From the things
25
We leave behind
26
Every heart needs to be set free,
27
From posessions
28
That hold it so tight
29
'Cause freedom's not found in the things that we own,
30
It's the power
31
To do what is right
32
Jesus, our only posession,
33
Giving becomes our delight
34
We can't imagine the freedom we find
35
From the things we leave behind
36
We show a love for the world in our lives
37
By worshipping goods we posess
38
Jesus has laid all our treasures aside
