True Treasure

Lyrics

Through a world of emerald beauty
Amidst mountains high and seas so blue
An Angel walked on a sacred duty
Seeking treasure, precious and true

What could it be, this heavenly prize?
Not of this world, but beyond the skies
A treasure so rare, it makes angels sing
What could be worth more than anything?

He saw diamonds hidden, fortunes displayed
Rubies and sapphires, masterpieces arrayed
Collections of art, machines of desire
But none of these set his heart on fire

What could it be, this heavenly prize?
Not of this world, but beyond the skies
A treasure so rare, it makes angels sing
What could be worth more than anything?

He witnessed the rich in despair's embrace
The poor driven by envy's bitter taste
Souls bartered for fleeting earthly gain
All these treasures proved in vain

For in this world of fading glory
These riches are but transitory
Like pixels in a game, they fade
Their value in eternity decayed

Then one day, in a home so plain
The Angel found what he sought to gain
A sinner knelt, with tears that fell
Seeking forgiveness, breaking sin's spell

At last revealed, the heavenly prize
A sinner's tear before God's eyes
A treasure so rare, it makes heaven ring
A repentant heart, worth more than anything

For God so loved this world below
He gave His Son, that we might know
The greatest treasure, beyond all measure
A heart redeemed, forever God's pleasure
