Bigger Barns

Oh my soul, take a look around Who am I to say that what I have is not enough? Still my mind, prone to wandering Will fall into a trap and covet greener grass than mine Am I praying right If I'm reeling off a list of all the things I need? Will it be enough When I reach the finish line or will it just repeat? Lift your head and turn around Cast your idols to the ground On the altar sacrifice your plans Build your bigger barns for grain They'll only be burned down again So hold the future lightly in your hands I will try to reconcile my thoughts That every door has closed no matter how hard I have pushed With the truth that God is on my side And at the perfect time for all my needs he will provide Can we disagree On the definition of the "perfect time" for me? How do I make plans If I'm always waiting for the final missing piece? Lift your head and turn around Cast your idols to the ground On the altar sacrifice your plans Build your bigger barns for grain They'll only be burned down again So hold the future lightly in your hands Store up all you want, know that it won't last Someday all your plans will be in the past Don't define enough as the thing you lack Satisfaction lies on the narrow path Lift your head and turn around Cast your idols to the ground On the altar sacrifice your plans Build your bigger barns for grain They'll only be burned down again So hold the future lightly in your hands
