Imagine the world without pride.
No national pride.
No religious pride.
No ethnic pride.
No political pride.
No familial pride.
No pride in oneself.
No more feeding our own egos.
No more hoping that perhaps, one day…
We finally make it…
So we no longer have to fake it.

Lyrics:
If You Give Your Pride
E, D, A, C
I was just doing my thing
What God wants me to do
When you decided to show up
With your negative attitude
Consumed by fears and doubts
You thought everyone is like you
But no, my friend, let me tell you
And maybe one day you’ll see truth
If you give up your pride
You’ll see the reason why
He sacrificed Himself
For us to have eternal life
Instead you want to judge
But you’re not judging me
Projecting all your fears
You judge yourself, my friend, you see
You judge yourself
I am going to walk away
For righteousness I will seek truth
Over the mountain passes
And further from your attitude
Maybe one day you will see
The blessings that God has for you
So I will pray, my friend
Because Jesus Christ loves you too
If you give up your pride
The blessings you will find
Revealing secrets of the world
Seeing through every lie
No one could put their doubts
Or weaken you in faith
You will be born again
This is His saving grace
Saving grace, saving grace…
Imagine…
No longer having anything to prove.
To ourselves.
To one another.
To the world.
