A Treasure

A treasure is found in each sunrise
When my eyes open each day to You
The fiery sun in all its brilliance
Shall always be my golden jewel

Its beauty shall remind me always
Of how rich I am in you Sweet Lord
When your love is such a part of me
Realizing each day I need you more

Though many among us claim to know you
I feel no one knows better than me
What you daily bring to each of our lives
With Your amazing grace, love, and integrity

Even the times when flesh seeks to deny You
My spirit and soul will always be yours
And they shall always possess deep within
The sweet treasure which you laid in store

Until that glorious day does finally come
When spirit and flesh separate and the battle is won.
