Michael W. Smith - Cross Of Gold Lyrics

Where do you stand What is your statement What is it you're trying to say What's in your hand What's in your basement What's in the cards you don't play Are you holding the key Or are you intending To pick the lock of heaven's gate It's confusing to me The message you're sending And I don't know if I can relate

What's your line Tell me why you wear your cross of gold State of mind Or does it find a way into your soul

Is it a flame Is it a passion A symbol of love living in you Or is it a game Religion in fashion Some kinda phase you're going thru We all travel the extremes From cellar to rafter Looking for a place in the sun So I'm trying to see What you're headed after But I don't know where you're coming from

bridge; (spoken) For some it's simply somethign to wear around your neck Just a chain Jewelry Is it a decoration? Is it an icon Or proclomation? An icon of what? What? For some it's simply something to wear around your neck Just a chain it means a lot more than that to me
