It's Only the World

Hi friends. It has been a heavy couple of days with some friends who are really hurting right now because of very special people that the Lord has taken out of their earthly lives. As I was driving in the car yesterday after hearing from one friend this song came on the radio and really struck me. It's an upbeat song by Mandesa. . .a runner up on American Idol - the words really ring true right now. I am so thankful that we serve a God who is bigger than any circumstance her on this earth and that our perfect Heavenly home awaits us. I love you all!

"Only the World"

Verse 1:
Been a hard one, Been a bad one
Been a tough one, Been a sad one
It's been one of those days that keeps chipping away at my heart
Nothing new here, It's what I do here
its a stereotypical day, in the life
I'm surrounded by all of the pain and the strife
but I know it's alright, woah oh

Chorus:
Cause it's only the world i'm living in
It's only today i've been given
There ain't no way i'm giving in
Cause it's only the world (only the world)
I know the best is still yet to come
Cause even when my days in the world are done
There's gonna be so much more than only the world for me
do do do do do do do do do, yeah its only the world

Verse 2:
Anybody can you hear me?
Do you feel me? I mean, do you feel me?
I know I'm not the only one wearing the weight in this world
We got problems (said it's alright)
Just remember (yeah, it's alright)
Take a good look around we're just
stuck on the ground for a little while
Don't it make you smile

Bridge:
Heaven is a place where the tears on every face will be wiped away
And I can't wait to go, but for now it's enough to know
This is only temporary this is only, Yeah, Alright!
