SATB
SSA
In a world of fleeting treasure where all precious things may pass How can I bestow on those I love the riches that will last? I would leave them an inheritance of everlasting worth I would give to them a treasure that is theirs by right of birth I will teach them of the Savior, of his sacrifice for them We will search the works of scripture that their love may grow for him That they may learn to feel the Spirit, we will kneel in sacred prayer That their hearts may yearn for heaven, we will seek our treasure there. When uncertainty surrounds them, may our home be blessed with peace May they find within a haven where their hope and faith increase Where their confidence in Christ may grow, wherein they are assured That the strength of true conviction bars all doubt beyond the door In a world of fleeting treasure where abiding things are few May I leave with them my witness of the things I know are true That they may rest among the riches of righteousness secure That amid the wealth of heaven, no want shall they endure. That those who follow after me may share An inheritance of wealth beyond compare That they may turn to God above, that they may know the blessing of A heritage of hope and a legacy of love
