Glitter and Glory

They say diamonds are forever But I say only time will tell They say money makes you happy But I'm not buying what they sell, oh 'Cause beauty, fame and fortune How they sparkle to the eye And fireworks burn brightly 'Til they fall out of the sky Don't want to live for something temporary I set my sights on eternity A world of lesser things shines before me But there's a difference between glitter and glory Glitter and glory Some will see their name in neon Think they've finally got it made But there always comes a moment When they watch it fade away I've seen power and possessions Take an inch then take control Don't wanna gain the whole world And lose my soul Don't want to live for something temporary I set my sights on eternity A world of lesser things shines before me But there's a difference between glitter and glory You're the treasure I see You're all that I need God, help me to see The difference between Glitter and glory Uh-huh, yeah Don't want to live for something temporary I set my sights on eternity A world of lesser things shines before me But there's a difference between Glitter and glory Glitter and glory Glitter and glory Glitter and glory
