Petra – Set For Life lyrics

Words by Bob Hartman
Based on Matthew 6: 19-21

He likes caviar, he likes champagne
Calls his broker just to check his gain
He made a profit of considerable size
Don't ask him no questions, he will tell you no lies
He kept thinking that he had it made
Never considering the price he paid
Earth bound treasures that will fade away
There ain't nothin' that will last him through the judgement day
Then he heard somebody say
There's a true Way

You'll be set for life
If you give your heart and believe what He's done for you
You'll be set for life
With your treasures stored up in heaven when you're through
Whoa, whoa
Never have another care, as long as you are there
Whoa, whoa
Rich in God beyond compare

Now these days, he's like a different man
He's got a heart of gold, he lends a helping hand
All he has he knows is never his
His heart is up in heaven where his treasure is
And now you'll hear him say
In his own way

You'll be set for life
You'll have all you need
Just receive with a willing heart
You'll be set for life
You'll be on your way
Any day you decide to start
Set for life
You've got it made

Now he has the right to say
In a true way
