The things that we so treasure
Are far more worth than gold!
It's the simple things of life
That have meaning yet untold.
The things that we so treasure
Carry value beyond a price.
As we esteem what we've been given
They will go with us after this life.
The things that we so treasure
Don't mean as much to man
We've a fortune that we cherish
That will fulfill the Master's plan.
The things that we so treasure
Can never be taken away
Unless we give it to the one and only
Who desires to lead us astray.
"Lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven,"
For there is where you'll find your heart!
No moth, nor rust, or thieves to steal.
There you'll attain the greater part!
