Prosperity Where are you?
I search for prosperity but only in vain.
What is prosperity? It’s only a word;
a word that can stir the wildest of dreams.
When dreaming of prosperity my visions run fast.
I would do this, no I would do that.
In reality it is all full of emptiness.
For seeking for prosperity that only this world can give,
leads us to a life that is never fulfilled.
I’ve dreamed of ways to obtain what this word prosperity means;
only to find I’m left with emptiness.
The word prosperity is taking on a new meaning.
It’s no longer empty, but now it’s full.
I’m beginning to see what this life has to offer
is shallow in the light of eternity.
But God’s prosperity is completely fulfilling.
My house is the largest, the biggest and best;
my car the fastest, the richest in class;
what does it profit just as the Bible says?
True prosperity is finding the way
to reach into heaven and grasp a hold of the prize;
each and every day being found worthy in His eyes.
Being a blessing, praying and encouraging,
things that are valuable in eternity;
this is where to search for true prosperity.
If you search in this way the promise is true,
you will find prosperity;
God’s prosperity, it’s the one you should find.
