The Pearl of Great Price

Undone undone undone I cry

Undone undone are we

and lo what the Savior had for me.

the priceless price, the only currency, that would suffice

the pure soul for me to give

Could I would I accept that free gift

Why not why would I?

Oh because if I give Him my life I wouldn't have mine

What would remain for me would be just a zero.

So look before you leap.

But if you give, give as if u will never ask it back.

Ask it to sin once a while,

to flatter once or twice, to point the speck,

to hurl the stone.

So give as if you lost it

Lost it not to death but life to gain it all.

Gain it all back when I stand before the Lord- the manager of that life.

It will sure move you to see

what this potter did with this clay

the clay of third rate, the clay of no use

But no one would recognise that clay when it stands in His presence that day,

the day of His choice

the day to put every man to the fire

The fire that will leave nothing undone but that which the maker poured.

The pearl of great price – that which He had bought to ransom many.

The pearl of great price.
