Can you sing the words to this song...and really mean it?!

What is most important to you?  Are you really willing to give it all up...for things that matter most to God?  He is not impressed with our achievements and our degrees.  How large our bank account is, doesn't impress Him.  He is not worried about our address and zip code.  What matters most...are the lives you touch each and every day!  How have you touched your family today?  Are they in your way?  Have you pushed them aside?  Have you encouraged someone else today or are you too obsessed with your troubles and desires?  Have you reached out to show the love of Jesus...with just a word or a smile?
We have lost sight of what is most important to God!  The only things that never die...are those people around you...and you can take them with you...to Heaven.

Things That Never Die
I can't think of any places I'd leave it all to go. I can't think of any thing I'd die to hold. The list of what is priceless is very short indeed. There aren't very many things I find I really need. So here's my simple plea...

Things that last forever, things that never die. I give my self each day I live, for what I know will never, never die. Yes, I will give myself away for things that will never die.

To know a love that's lasting, forgiveness without blame, peace that through the pressure still remains.  The simple joy of living, my family, and my friends.  Relationships that go on after space and time shall end.  I thank you, Lord, for them.

Things that last forever, things that never die.  I give myself each day I live, for what I know will never, never die.  Yes, I will give myself away for things that will never die.

To rescue someone dying, to lift a fallen child, to hurt when someone's hurting, to walk a second mile...
Things that last forever, things that never die.  I give myself each day I live for what I know will never, never die.  Yes, I will give myself away for things that will never die.
