If I could have the world and all it owns<br />
A thousand kingdoms, a thousand thrones<br />
If all the earth were mine to hold<br />
With wealth my only goal<br />
<br />
I'd spend my gold on selfish things<br />
Without the love that Your life brings<br />
Just a little bit more is all I'd need<br />
'Til life was torn from me<br />
<br />
I'd rather be in the palm of Your hand<br />
Though rich or poor I may be<br />
Faith can see right through the circumstance<br />
Sees the forest in spite of the trees<br />
Your grace provides for me<br />
<br />
If I should walk the streets no place to sleep<br />
No faith in promises You keep<br />
I'd have no way to buy my bread<br />
With a bottle for my bed<br />
<br />
But if I trust the One who died for me<br />
Who shed His blood to set me free<br />
If I live my life to trust in You<br />
Your grace will see me through<br />
<br />
I'd rather be in the palm of Your hand<br />
Though rich or poor I may be<br />
Faith can see right through the circumstance<br />
Sees the forest in spite of the trees<br />
<br />
If I could have the world<br />
If I could have the world and all it owns
