Petra - Set For Life lyrics

Words by Bob Hartman

Based on Matthew 6:19-21

He likes caviar, he likes champagne

Calls his broker just to check his gain

He made a profit of considerable size

Don't ask him no questions, he will tell you no lies

He kept thinking that he had it made

Never considering the price he paid

Earth bound treasures that will fade away

There ain't nothin' that will last him through the judgement day

Then he heard somebody say

There's a true Way

You'll be set for life

If you give your heart and believe what He's done for you

You'll be set for life

With your treasures stored up in heaven when you're through

Whoa, whoa

Never have another care, as long as you are there

Whoa, whoa

Rich in God beyond compare

Now these days, he's like a different man

He's got a heart of gold, he lends a helping hand

All he has he knows is never his

His heart is up in heaven where his treasure is

And now you'll hear him say

In his own way

You'll be set for life

You'll have all you need

Just receive with a willing heart

You'll be set for life

You'll be on your way

Any day you decide to start

Set for life

You've got it made

Now he has the right to say

In a true way
