You Love The World (And You`re Avoiding — текст песни (Keith Green)

I want you here with me.

But you`ve been keeping other company.

You can`t sit still, it`s plain to see.

You love the world and you`re avoiding me.


My word sits there upon your desk.

But you love your books and magazines the best.

Prefer the light of your TV.

You love the world, and you`re avoiding me.


You used to pray, you were so brave.

Now you can`t keep even one appointment we`ve made.

Oh I gave my blood, to save you life.

Tell me, tell me is it right?

Will you leave me here along again tonight?


Well I love you, still more and more.

But you`re fighting everything I`m working for.

You`re acting like my enemy.

You love the world and you`re avoiding me.


These other loves, they`re hurting you.

If you end up losing me, then what will you do?

Oh, I gave my blood, to save your life.

Tell me, tell me is it right?

Will you leave me here alone again tonight?


Well, I want you, here with me.

But you`ve been keeping other company.

Prefer the light, of your TV.

You love the world, and you`re avoiding me.

You love the world, you love the world,

You love the world and you`re avoiding me.

Oh, you love the world.

You love the world and you`re avoiding me.
