Treasures

Malachi 4:2

Verse 1

It may not seem so at this time

if you feel like you’re imprisoned

and the wicked are rewarded with the best the world can give 

But God sees who serves and honours Him.

And the day is coming, so don’t give in

When with honour His treasured ones God will bestow

 

Verse 2

On that day in the revealing light

of the sun of all righteousness

When He will rise up with healing in His wings.

Then at last all will know of Whom you serve

The righteous and wicked will diverge

When with honour His treasured ones God will bestow

 

Chorus

And you’ll be so relieved, so excited
You’ll be kicking up your heels in joyful glee

Like calves released from the oppressive stall

Like dancing lights on a waterfall

Free to be the treasures in God’s kingdom

Verse 3

Whatever the prisons in your life

Be it illness, poverty, emotional strife

The Lord still reaches in and brings relief

He promises to the faithful clan

Honour to rival any rewards of man

He’ll raise you up and break apart your prison chains

 

Bridge

Precious in God’s eyes

He gazes on your life as a well-cut jewel

Precious, you realise

More priceless than the treasures of the world
