Preview (partial song; no chords displayed)
In my own little world it hardly ever rains
I’ve never gone hungry, always felt safe
I got some money in my pocket, shoes on my feet
In my own little world – population: me
I try to stay awake during Sunday morning church
I throw a twenty in the plate, but I never give ‘til it hurts
I turn off the news when I don’t like what I see
It’s easy to do when it’s - population: me
What if there’s a bigger picture? What if I’m missing out?
What if there’s a greater purpose I could be living right now
Outside my own little world (ooh)
Stopped at a red light, looked out my window
I saw a cardboard sign, said “Help this homeless widow”
And just above that sign was the face of a human
And I thought to myself, “God, what have I been doing?”
So I rolled down the window and I looked her in the eye
Oh, how many times have I just passed her by?
I gave her some money, then I drove on through
And my own little world is – Population: two
What if there’s a bigger picture? What if I’m missing out?
What if there’s a greater purpose I could be living right now
Outside my own little world (ooh)
Outside my own little world (ooh)
Whoa - Whoa - Whoa (yea…)
Father, break my heart for what breaks Yours
Give me open hands and open doors
And put Your light in my eyes and let me see
That my own little world is not about me
What if there’s a bigger picture? What if I’m missing out?
What if there’s a greater purpose I could be living right now
I don’t want to miss what matters! I want to be reaching out
Show me the greater purpose So I can start living right now
Outside my own little world (ooh)
My own little world (ooh)
My own little world (ooh)
Whoa - Whoa - Whoa
