Treasure from the Wise

TREASURE FROM THE WISE

Why have you hidden treasure from the wise?
Who profess to have knowledge in their own eyes.
How good is knowledge if we can’t answer these questions?
Where were you when the Lord formed the heavens?
A twinkle in the eye, a dot on the page
He has been here from age to age.
Can you answer this, are you without sin?
Because if so God will let you in,
Into His presence and heavenly throne
For all eternity you shall call home.
No reply, because the answer is no
One moment of your life, it will clearly show.
I know of One, a spotless pure Lamb
Jesus Christ incarnate God becoming man.
To die on the cross, because of our defects
And to do the will of His Father, by gathering the elect.
Who is worthy enough to fulfill this plan?
The sinless Christ, the Son of Man.
So what good is knowledge, if you don’t believe
Come before Him like a child, so you can receive
His eternal gift and heavenly treasure
That you may enjoy it forever and ever.
But what does it mean to come like a child?
Humble, small, carefree or mild?
No, we must come helpless for all He give us,
There is no other way; this is a must.
When we trust Him for all our needs
Only then will there be fruit from seeds.
May we understand that it is faith alone,
And not knowledge that will take us home.
