Treasure Pleasure

Treasure Pleasure

This world offers no lasting Treasure
Its offerings is a drop in the ocean of eternity
This world offers no lasting Pleasure
Seeking it is sailing the sea of vanity

This world offers no joy of lasting measure
Nor will you find lasting peace and serenity
This world offers no excellence in disposure
Morals in the survival of the fittest is an absurdity

This world offers too much exciting leisure
That the soul may have no spiritual opportunity 
This world offers too much sensuous exposure
That the soul may drown in a mess of carnility

Let no treasure keep you from heaven 
Let no pleasure keep you from heaven
Let no leisure keep you from heaven
Let Jesus the way, the truth and the life take you to heaven
