I’ve been running down this road
Don’t even know where I’m going half the time
I’ve been hiding in my phone
I have been missing all the moments and trying to find
I’ve been pushing back regret
I’ve been lost inside my head
I’ve been wandering around like a ghost
But I wanna hold on to the right things
And let go of the rest
‘Cause time’s worth more than money
And I’m done buying what won’t last
‘Cause the years are just a vapor
And this life is just a breath
I wanna hold on to the right things
And let go of the rest
I’ve been wearing myself out
Trying to get this off the ground on my own
Yeah, I’ve been carrying this weight
Feeling that something’s gotta change, God, I know it
Oh God, I know it
I’ve been pushing back regret
I’ve been lost inside my head
I’ve been wandering around like a ghost
But I wanna hold on to the right things
And let go of the rest
‘Cause time’s worth more than money
And I’m done buying what won’t last
‘Cause the years are just a vapor
And this life is just a breath
I wanna hold on to the right things
And let go of the rest
You’re the one thing that will last forever
So I’m done holding on to what won’t matter
You’re the one thing that will last forever
So I’m done holding on to what won’t matter
You’re the one thing that will last forever (oh, oh)
So I’m done holding on to what won’t matter (you’re the only thing)
You’re the one thing that will last forever (oh, oh)
So I’m done holding on to what won’t matter
I wanna hold on to the right things
And let go of the rest
‘Cause time’s worth more than money
And I’m done buying what won’t last
‘Cause the years are just a vapor
And this life is just a breath
So hold on to the right things
And let go of the rest
~The Right Things, Chris Renzema
I heard this song on the way to Wal-mart this morning. It really spoke to me. How many times have I gotten lost in my phone? How many times have I forgotten that time is worth more than money? I want to ”hold on to the right things and let go of the rest.”
About a year ago, I started creating a list of songs that struck a chord with me in one way or another. Hearing this song also reminded me to share my “running list” of songs that I’ve discovered. If you get a chance to listen to any or all of them I pray the songs uplift, bless, encourage, and inspire you.
Your friend,
Tiffany
