To Gain His Pearl
To Gain His Pearl

The kingdom of the heavens is a merchant Seeking finest pearls in the world; A single pearl He found of greatest value, He sold His all and bought it. |
| Christ loved the church, He paid the price for her. He knows her all-surpassing worth, And I too give my all To gain His pearl. |

A pearl is something transformed in death waters, Not something created by God. The church is nothing natural, but she's processed Through death and resurrection. |

Once just a little rock or grain of sand, we Wounded Christ who died on the cross. Our sinner-loving Savior, He embraced us— Secreted life around us. |

Although we wound the Savior, never leave Him. In His wound remain, make Your home. He'll keep dispensing resurrection into us, Transform us to His treasure. |
