Written as a response to a young person's need to understand the concept of an All-powerful God that can help us overcome any situation. The idea that friends and family can come and go in our lives at anytime, the thought that the Almighty is always there for us and will not let us down. It is an anthem song with a message.
Philippians 4:8
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest,whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure,whatsoever things are lovely,whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
It seems that the world's bottom line is always the Almighty Dollar. It is the ultimate goal in the world. As Christians, we set our sights on the high prize of Eternal Life through Jesus Christ. Big Business is a song that reminds us to be careful not to get caught up into the worldly things.
BIG BUSINESS
THEY WANT YOUR MONEY TO SAVE YOUR SOUL
MILLIONS OF DOLLARS TO REACH A GOAL
DO THEY CARE IF YOU'RE PART OF THE FOLD
OR DO THEY JUST WANT YOUR SILVER AND GOLD
THEY SIT IN FRONT OF THEIR ELECTRIC BOX
GIVING THEIR MONEY, BONDS AND THEIR STOCKS
DO THEY CARE HOW THEIR MONEY'S SPENT
OR DO THEY THINK IT'S ALL HEAVEN SENT
THERE'S GOING TO COME A DAY WHEN WE WILL REALIZE
WHAT THEY'VE BEEN TEACHING US IS REALLY ONLY LIES
ONE DAY WE'LL STAND BACK BETRAYED BY A KISS
THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE TO ADMIT IT'S ALL BEEN BIG BUSINESs
THEY SIT UPON THEIR VELVET THRONES
EAT THE MEAT THROW AWAY THE BONES
DECISIONS THEY MAKE SEEM UNREAL
HOW DO THEY KNOW HOW THE HOMELESS FEEL
MAKING THEIR WAY UP THE CORPORATE LADDER
WHO'S HEAD THEY CRUSH DOESN'T SEEM TO MATTER
BUT ONE DAY THEY'LL TAKE A STEP AND THEY'RE GONNA MISS
