Where Did
It Go? Lyrics
Words and
music by Mitch McVicker and Michael Aukofer
The Lord
will lift us up and never say goodbye
He'll keep
the poor and weak and weary at His side
Because
He's merciful
And we
all want to be noticed
And we
long to be seen
But at
His side we have everything that we need
But still
we look for more
Chorus
And with
the Kingdom at hand
We search
for that
That never
lasts,
And when
we find it don't last
We're gonna
ask
Where did
it go
Where did
it go,
I just
don't know
I guess
it don't take long for things to fade
Oh but
faith, hope and love remain
Now 15 minutes
come and go so very quick
But that
is more than some of us will ever get
And still
we chase after it
Chorus
Faith, hope
and love
Faith,
hope and love remain
When we
learn things fade
When we
learn things fade away
Chorus

From Mitch:
This is
a song I wrote in Indiana with Michael Aukofer when he was playing music
with me. We were thinking about how we play for people, and they stand
up, and they clap, and they make you feel real good, but it lasts for only
a few minutes. Most of what we place stock in, in this life, doesn't last.
It is the things of the kingdom of God that remain ... faith, hope, and
love.
