Lyrics: Ginny Owens. Bread.
Man cannot live by bread alone
He needs something stronger
To feed his hungry soul
So he'll try everything under the sun
But nothing will end his hunger
Nothing but Your love
He'll acquire treasure
But it won't amount to much
He'll fall in love with pleasure
But none will fill him up
And when he has exhausted
All this world can give to him
Still he'll not grow weary
Of chasing after the wind
I looked in the mirror
Just the other day
I was so surprised
I hardly recognized the change
So restless and so hurried
I've spent so much time
Running after things
I'm gonna have to leave behind
He needs something stronger
To feed his hungry soul
So he'll try everything under the sun
But nothing will end his hunger
Nothing but Your love
He'll acquire treasure
But it won't amount to much
He'll fall in love with pleasure
But none will fill him up
And when he has exhausted
All this world can give to him
Still he'll not grow weary
Of chasing after the wind
I looked in the mirror
Just the other day
I was so surprised
I hardly recognized the change
So restless and so hurried
I've spent so much time
Running after things
I'm gonna have to leave behind
