I’ve tried hard to win in this game/ and I ran far looking for the fame/ just to put it in my pocket/ where I could keep it close/ just to put it in my pocket/ for sometime down the road/ First place felt nice and victory was sweet/ when girls and boys would ask to be friends with me/ so I put ‘em in my pocket/ to know that people cared for me/ so I put ‘em in my pocket/ but it was really hard for me to see that ■ What I have is not my own/ I gotta give it back to you/ though I’m left here empty-handed/ I’m so glad you knew/ there’s a hole in my pocket/ cause all I ever need is in You ■ If Jesus came by looking for a home/ would you offer up the key to your very own/ or would you keep it in your pocket?/ and let him stand outside/ please don’t keep it in your pocket/ and I promise I won’t keep it in mine ■ What I have is not my own/ I gotta give it back to you/ though I’m left here empty-handed/ I’m so glad you knew/ there’s a hole in my pocket/ a hole in my pocket yeah ■ To hold on to what I find/ to store away what isn’t mine/ is to love what will fall through/ I will trust in You ■ Cause what I have is not my own/ I gotta give it back to you/ though I’m left here empty-handed/ I’m so glad you knew/ that what I have is not my own/ I gotta give it back to you/ though I’m left here empty-handed/ You already knew/ there’s a hole in my pocket/ cause all I ever need is in You
