Song lyrics
You read the business page
See how you did today
Life's just passed you by
You live up on the hill
You've got a view that kills
Never wonder why.

After you've counted everything you saved
Do you ever hit your knees and pray?
You know there's gonna be a judgment day
So what will you say?

Chorus:
No matter what you make
All that you can take
Is what you give away
What you give away.

There's people on the street
Ai't got enough to eat
You just shake your head
The measure of a man is one who lends a hand
That's what my father said.

After you've counted everything you saved
Do you ever hit your knees and pray?
You know there's gonna be a judgment day
So what will you say?

Chorus:
No matter what you make
All that you can take
Is what you give away
What you give away.

It's what you give away.

After you've counted everything you saved
Do you ever hit your knees and pray?
You know there's gonna be a judgment day
So what will you say?

No matter what you make
All that you can take
Is what you give away.

You know it's not too late
It's all for Heaven's sake
What you give away
What you give away
What you give away...

Yes, definitely - however, it's hard to stay "in tune" with the urgent truly needs.

This song really is inspring. It makes you look at your life and the selfishness that we all suffer from. Vince and Amy are amazing as far as what they are willing to do for those without.
