All Our Hopes and Dreams

All Our Hopes and Dreams

 

Turn each lust to passion for You Lord

Turn each covetous care to Your pursuit

Turn each murderous thought

To compassion you have wrought.

Turn each lying tongue to tell Your truth.

 

All our other gods must be broken by Your rod

And our idols all must be destroyed

We seek you first, last for only You we'll thirst

Cast off all the fallen things we have enjoyed

Until heart and mind, soul and strength shall find

Their fulfillment in the One who's true.

There's no substitute, there's One Holy Pursuit

All our hopes and dreams we'll find in You

All our hopes and dreams not what the world esteems

All our hopes and dreams we'll find in You
