1. Today I took took a stroll into the world's casino and what I saw was such a shame
Men and women everywhere wasted their lives on hopeless games
On empty beliefs and endless pursuits they spent all their time and lives
They bet their soul on a blind dice roll and slowly lost it all before their eyes
2. I've met the owner of that place, he's a real hip cat with a flashy smile
But I looked real close past the poker face and saw a joker with hell fire in his eyes
And that's why I'm here to make it clear that these games are all a ruse
Just come with me and step outside. I'll show you something you can't lose!
(chorus) Bet your life on it!
Come to the One who's been waiting for you.
Bet your life on it!
Open your arms, your heart, and be made new
Bet your soul on it!
The last are first and all the losers win
Bet your soul on it!
His grace and your faith are the ticket in
3. An Ace... a King... and Seven (or Jack?) of hearts... are all you need for a winning hand
Put it all on Christ and you'll score more than you could find in all the land
The stuff this world awards will soon make you bored, it's only the devil's bluff
Because no matter how much you got enough ain't enough and enough ain't enough ain't enough
4. I'm not a gambling man but I'll bet everything on what won't throw me in a ditch
The real winners of this world know the secrets of life that make them truly rich
Give and it shall be given to you, enjoy your life with your family and friends
Count your blessings, laugh and love, praise God for a life that never ends!
(chorus)
Give it your all! I said give it your all!
Don't hold back and don't compromise
Give it your all! I said give it your all!
Hold on to truth and run from lies
Now let's take a ride
Put the pedal to the metal. Go all the way.
Put the pedal to the metal. Go all the way.
Floor it, floor it, and hang on tight.
You'll bust down walls and move faster than sound
With the Holy Ghost in your tank you can be stopped!
