Lyrics

We’re Not Just Growing Gardens
(for my friend Brenda, a woman of wisdom)

Refrain
Sometimes in this fast paced world things get topsy turvy.
Many question why they’re here and what their goals should be.
In Christ we have the answers that they’re looking for.
Lord, help our lives to show His reality.

For we’re not just growing gardens, we’re growing children.
We’re not just building houses, we’re building men.
We’re not just making music, we’re making memories,
And glorifying God with our family and friends.

We’re not merely making meals, we’re making Mamas.
We’re not merely making a living, we’re making a life.
Our goal is not comfort and security.
In the end it will all be worth any struggle or strife. (Refrain)

For God doesn’t just value the product, He values the process.
We who are made in His image should do the same.
More than just obedience, He wants a relationship
With those He created to glorify His name

We’re not just prepping for tomorrow, we’re preparing for eternity.
We’re not just changing behavior, we’re transforming minds.
Lord keep us from love of the world or pursuit of vanity,
For we’re trusting Holy Spirit to prepare Christ’s bride (Refrain)
