Original artwork description:

NEW Christian artwork to be added to our Music Inspired Art and Christian Art Collections. This one is inspired by the Song by Consumed By Fire called, " First Things First." It measures 16" x 16" and is created on discarded Sailboat Canvas. It will also be added to that collection which is called, ( Saving the Sails.. A New Creation). Each artwork is usually inspired by a single verse in the song. I will post the lyrics to the entire song below. The title of this artwork is, " I ONLY WANT YOU! "


Lyrics to " First Things First" by Consumed By Fire.

All the things that I have held dear
The vanities that whispered in my ear
What would I do if they all disappeared
Riches and fame and all that they could buy
I've come to find they never satisfy
What would I gain if my soul's the price
I don't wanna love what the world loves
I don't wanna chase what the world does
I only want you
I only want you
First thing's first
I seek Your will
Not my own
Surrender all my wants to you
Keep the first thing first
To live Your truth
Walk Your ways
Set my eyes
Lord I fix my face on you
All my desires reversed
To keep the first thing first
I give it all
My life an offering
My heart is yours
So have Your way in me
Your kingdom's all I wanna seek
I don't wanna love what the world loves
I don't wanna chase what the world does
I only want you
I only want you
First thing's first
I seek Your will
Not my own
Surrender all my wants to you
Keep the first thing first
To live Your truth
Walk Your ways
Set my eyes
Lord I fix my face on you
All my desires reversed
To keep the first thing first
To keep the first thing first
All my desires reversed
To keep the first thing first
To keep the first thing first
First thing's first
I seek Your will
Not my own
Surrender all my wants to you
Keep the first thing first
To live Your truth
Walk Your ways
Set my eyes
Lord I fix my face on you
All my desires reversed
To keep the first thing first
To keep the first thing first
To keep the first thing first
All my desires reversed
To keep the first thing first

NOTE about this canvas: As you can see these sections of sailboat sail canvas are very rustic. They are unraveled on the edges and some slightly wrinkled... like a piece of a sail found on the beach. They are also seldom perfectly square due to the characteristic of its ability to stretch with the wind. For me this just adds to the essence that this is indeed a piece of sailboat sail canvas... perhaps from a lost ship at sea! Let your imagination soar with this one! I feel it would look great hung on a wall with tacks, or matching colored push pins. Some of my clients hot glue a dowel rod to the top on the backside and hang it by nautical rope or string. YOU can even participate in the creation of this artwork by unraveling it more on the edges if you want to make it look more distressed. These artworks are for the special GREEN-minded people who are like me in that they hate to discard things that can be repurposed. Especially into works of Art.
