Artist/Band: Steven Curtis Chapman
Lyrics for Song: Land of Opportunity
Lyrics for Album: Signs of Life [1996]



Another day is off and running

And I hear somebody pounding on my door

It's opportunity knocking

Says what I need is just a little bit more

Every time I turn around I'm finding

Another chance to climb a little higher up

But it's never what I thought once I get there

And I'm left wondering "How much is enough?"



I can live like a prisoner to all that could be

I'm living in the land of opportunity

But a heart pure and simple

Is a heart that stays free

Living in the land of opportunity

I'm living in the land of opportunity



This is a world full of options

It's like a never ending buffet line

While all that I'm really needing

Is living water and the bread of life

So as I'm walking through this life making choices

There is one thing I must never forget

This land of opportunity has one God

If I seek Him first He'll take care of the rest



Seek ye first the kingdom of God

Seek ye first the kingdom of God



Seek ye first the kingdom of God

So many choices, so much it could be

Seek ye first the kingdom of God

Living in the land of opportunity


Land of Opportunity

Steven Curtis Chapman's "Land of Opportunity" serves as a poignant centerpiece on his 1996 album *Signs of Life*. Released during a period where Chapman was refining his signature blend of acoustic storytelling and contemporary Christian rock, the track explores themes of divine providence and the promise of a new beginning. The song features Chapman's characteristic vocal delivery, characterized by its warmth and emotional depth, which has become a staple in his discography. As part of the broader landscape of 1990s Christian music, the recording reflects the genre's shift toward more personal and narrative-driven lyrics. It stands alongside other notable works from the era, such as "Rubber Meets the Road," contributing to Chapman's reputation as a master of lyrical clarity and spiritual reflection.
