A Chasing Of The Wind

Every heart is filled with longing

To be free from all life's pain

Yet the search through earthly pleasures

Always ends in vain

Only God who made the heavens

Can satisfy our souls

Apart from Him and all His meaning

All things fail as they begin

And hearts deceived can only know

A chasing of the wind

All achievements, all possessions

All with time return to dust

Only God can be our reason

For deep and quiet trust

He will guard us from the dangers

That gladly make men fools

Apart from Him and all His meaning

All things fail as they begin

And hearts deceived can only know

A chasing of the wind

A chasing of the wind

Why do we live without Jesus?

Why do we waste another day?

He is the life that sustains us

The only hope for us today

So tell me, why do we live

Why do we live without Him?
