Everything I Need Songtext
Remember after that great storm
and everything that we had was gone;
all of our worldly possessions laid to waste?
As we stood there and we stared
in that field of despair, I realized, I've got
Everything I need right here.

In the blink of an eye we're here and then we're gone
so little time that we've been given
Why would we waste that precious time
in pursuit of what is yours and what is mine?
So gather together my people, my friend and my family,
and I'll have everything I need

You know, human kind, we seem to be
marked by the proclivity to covet things material
and disregard the spiritual.
Yes, idols do we make of all that we accumulate,
but they've re just a souvenir and nothing to be revered.

In the blink of an eye we're here and then we're gone
so little time that we've been given
Why would we waste that precious time
in pursuit of what is yours and what is mine?
So gather together my people, my friend and my family,
and I'll have everything I need
