An upbeat, driving alt-rock anthem in the spirit of Green Day and Relient K, reflecting on the futility of chasing worldly desires and reminding us that true peace and purpose are found only in Christ.
If this song makes you smile, think, or pause to re-evaluate what really matters, please give it a 👍 and share it with someone who needs hope beyond this world.
Message
This song challenges the endless chase for success, recognition, and self-made purpose. Whether we pursue wealth, thrill, or even good deeds, every dream built on worldly foundations eventually crumbles. The world has a way of undoing even our best-laid plans. Yet amid the instability, Christ offers the one thing that cannot be taken away — salvation and peace through Him. True fulfillment is found when our hopes rest in the eternal hands of Jesus, whose work is already complete.

Lyrics
Verse 1
You can chase the money, you can chase the crown,
You can chase the spotlight ‘till it burns you down.
You can chase approval, you can chase control,
You can climb the ladder trying to reach the goal.
But life is not always considerate,
It doesn’t always play fair, does it?
One small spark, one twist of fate,
And everything you built can be erased.
Chorus
How are those dreams you’re chasing holding up?
Do your plans still shine when life calls your bluff?
If you change what’s really important,
And establish a new set of dreams,
Leaving behind what used to guide your steps.
Would you even really notice the difference?
Is joy really all that hard to find?
Or is it just a decision in your mind?
This world is great for undoing plans,
But what if the answer lied in eternal hands?
Verse 2
Chasing the rush, the climb, the thrill,
Living for highs, a life fulfilled.
Mountains to scale, horizons wide,
The world’s their stage, their joy, their pride.
But one sharp turn, a body breaks,
A fleeting life, that’s all it takes.
The chase cut short, the curtain drawn,
And all that thrill is quickly gone.
Chorus
How are those dreams you’re chasing holding up?
Do your plans still shine when life calls your bluff?
If you change what’s really important,
And establish a new set of dreams,
Leaving behind what used to guide your steps.
Would you even really notice the difference?
Is joy really all that hard to find?
Or is it just a decision in your mind?
This world is great for undoing plans,
But what if the answer lied in eternal hands?
Verse 3
You live to help, to serve, to give,
To model how one should really live.
Each kindness weighed, each sacrifice,
Hoping it earns an eternal prize.
But underneath your motives mix with
Pride and fear, of hidden tricks.
Do all these deeds truly define,
The worth of a life, or just a line?
Chorus
How are those dreams you’re chasing holding up?
Do your plans still shine when life calls your bluff?
If you change what’s really important,
And establish a new set of dreams,
Leaving behind what used to guide your steps.
Would you even really notice the difference?
Is joy really all that hard to find?
Or is it just a decision in your mind?
This world is great for undoing plans,
But what if the answer lied in eternal hands?
Verse 4
Then enters Christ, the work complete,
Creation fades, and the world retreats.
Priorities align with God,
The Holy Spirit you can’t defraud.
A new foundation has been laid,
And hope in Him will never fade.
A light now guides the path we walk,
The debt’s been paid, our souls now bought.
Chorus – Final
How are those dreams you’re chasing holding up?
Do your plans still shine when life calls your bluff?
If you change what’s really important,
And establish a new set of dreams,
Leaving behind what used to guide your steps.
Would you even really notice the difference?
Is joy really all that hard to find?
Or is it just a decision in your mind?
This world is great for undoing plans,
But what if the answer lied in eternal hands?
