I Put Away My Idols - Dion

I was raised on New York rock and roll

I took control

I was cool

Made the rounds

Made the record hops

I hit the top

Played the fool

From above I truly heard a friend

Truly now you must be born again

I put away my idols

I stripped away all the titles

Money wrinkles and things do decay

I put away my idols

I was living by my horoscope

Taking pills to cope

With my pain

Rock and roll was my identity

My whole security

I made a name

Truly from above I heard a friend

Truly now you must be born again

I put away my idols

I stripped away all the titles

Money wrinkles and things do decay

I put away my idols

Looking back over my years

My story did unfold

I worshipped people and their gifts

Not the gift giver at all

Well you see

People they’ve come and gone

But life in Him goes on and on

He’s given me a brand new song

To sing

I put away my idols

I stripped away all the titles

Money wrinkles and things do decay

I put away my idols

Truly now you must be born again

Truly that’s the way you will begin

You put away your idols

I stripped away the titles

Money wrinkles

Things do decay

I put away my idols

Cadillacs end up in the junkyard

I put away my idols
