Story behind the song
Philippians 3:10
Lyrics
Everybody has a secret dream
Some would die pursuing them it seems
Some seek for security and fame
But I don't want to join them
I'm getting out of this game
That I may know Him
And the power of the resurrection
And the fellowship of His sufferings
That I may please Him
In my thoughts, my words and actions
All my life His praises I will sing
I may have been successful in some way
And I may live in comfort everyday
But if these things should hinder or delay
The one thing I desire
I'd give them all away
All I want is to get a bit closer
To my wonderful Lord
I want to partake of His sufferings
I would give everything that I treasure
All that I could afford
All my life His praises I will sing
