Elizabeth Anne
(Rich Mullins)
Don't get lost in the glitter.
On the dark side of tomorrow the glitter fades.
And babe, Jesus lit the lights that led the wise men's ways.
Don't get caught feeling bitter.
Don't ever let the sun go down on your wrath.
Be brave! For the lamp unto thy feet is the light unto your path.
Hide these words in your heart that you might not sin against Him..
He who brought you out of the dark. Don't go back there again!
When you're tossed, don't you get twisted.
When your friends forget you ever lived; well, you'll wish you never had.
Be glad! 'Cause the things that this world offers you ain't worth having to have.
Have you forgotten or just missed it, that "faith comes from hearing every word He said"?
Don't turn back when you walk through the valleys where the shadows fall like death.
Don't hide your light in a jar, but let it shine before men
So they can see who you are. And, the Lord will be shown to them!
Elizabeth Anne! Elizabeth Anne!
And, when you need a friend, I'm right here by your side.
But, the One you must cling to is the One that died for propitiation for our sins.
Oh, Elizabeth Anne!
When you're tossed, don't you get twisted.
When your friends forget you ever lived, then you'll wish you never had.
Be glad! For the things you have in Jesus are the only things that last.
The things you have in Jesus are the only things that really last.
