The next time you feel important
Look up and watch the evening sky
Next to ten million stars
Over this world of ours
How tiny are you and I
The next time you feel important
Look out upon the end of sea
As the tides come and go
How can you help but know
How humble a man should be
The world may make you a king
But just remember one thing
There have been kings before
And there will be more
The next time you feel important
Get down upon your knees and pray
And when you think of who
Will be listening to you
Your glory will fade away
The next time you feel important
Get down upon your knees and pray
And when you think of who
Will be listening to you
Your glory will fade away
