I Want to Serve God Lyrics by Sam McCabe

Altar Fire

2020

[Verse 1]
I wanna serve God
Don't wanna serve money
Don't wanna use the altar fire
To keep the engine running
'Cause I got treasure in heaven
That wealth could not afford me
I wanna serve God
Don't wanna serve money
[Verse 2]
I wanna serve God
Don't wanna serve power
'Cause the Almighty dwells among the weak
Not in the ivory tower
And when I'm drunk on my own glory
I never recognize the hour
I wanna servе God
Don't wanna serve power
[Chorus]
I don't wanna follow a God that's
Always on my sidе
Trying to enshrine my disposition
And call it the divine
When the clouds come rolling in
Who's really leading who?
Do I want You to look like me
Or do I wanna look like You?
[Post-Chorus]
[?]
[Verse 3]
I wanna serve God
Don't wanna serve war
'Cause the only thing I'm called to bear
Is a cross and not a sword
And when I bear my brother's burdens
Creation is restored
I wanna serve God
Don't wanna serve war
[Chorus]
I don't wanna follow a God that's
Always on my side
Trying to enshrine my disposition
And call it the divine
When the clouds come rolling in
Who's really leading who?
Do I want You to look like me
Or do I wanna look like You?
[Post-Chorus]
[?]
[Outro]
I wanna serve God
Don't wanna serve fear
Don't wanna think I'll never have enough
So I trade all the years
Of watching kids my grow
Getting to love them while I'm here
I wanna serve God
