Heavenly Treasures

He is our mighty foe
from days long ago
triumphing in our woes

Pursuing us with a fierce hate
secretly lying in wait
always ready to change our fate

We are not his equal
letting our guard down could be lethal
opening us up to all kinds of evil

But, we do not have to fight alone
God's grace we can call our own
Jesus died, our sins he did atone

So, we should take measure
giving up our earthly pleasures
storing up our heavenly treasures
