Lyrics

Let your way of life be free
from the love of money;
Being content with what you have
For He Himself has said,
"I will never desert you
Nor will I ever forsake you."
That's what Hebrews 13:5 says:
Be content. (Don't need a money market)
Be content
(You take your Porsche and park it)
Be content!


Short ditty, has a kids song feel to the melody with a more adult theme. Good message

what a terrific message that we should all aspire to be... content.

A really cute children's song! Also good to help with scripture memory.

It sounds like the perfect song for a children's ministry!

happy go lucky tune in the christian vein, a very quick statement on the "good book" for sure.

You have a beautiful voice with great pitch. This would be nice on a children's CD. It's fun to learn scripture put to music. Blessings to you.
