Lyrics
Leave the things of time
For the things of eternity
Choose the things of Heaven
O'er the goods of the earth
Obtain the hundred fold
In the place of the one
And so possess a blessed and eternal life
Chorus:
What a laudable exchange
What a great and praiseworthy blessing
What a laudable exchange
Because of this
I have resolved to always progress
From good to better
To be faithful in His service
To always progress
From virtue to virtue
To obtain the hundred fold
In the place of the one
And so possess a blessed and eternal life
(Repeat Chorus)
Leave the things of time
For the things of eternity
