|
There is an ancient story of a long lost treasure of immeasurable worth
A worth greater than gold, diamonds, and rubies
This treasure is the key to eternal joy and life
The quest is on
The peril is real
And the stakes are life and death
So prepare for the adventure of a lifetime
As you seek the treasure beyond measure

VERSE 1
The search is on
We’re going around the world
Searching for treasure
The Treasure Beyond Measure
We got our map in hand
Heading to far away lands
Searching for treasure
The Treasure Beyond Measure
PRE-CHORUS
There is no greater adventure than this…
CHORUS
It’s the Treasure Beyond Measure
Worth the risk; Worth the cost
Find it you’re no longer lost
Seek the Treasure Beyond Measure
VERSE 2
So join the hunt
It’s for everyone
Searching for treasure
Treasure Beyond Measure
Trekking from north to south
Looking east to west
Searching for treasure
Treasure Beyond Measure
BRIDGE
The map is the Word of God
given so the lost could be found
It shows us the Way
And illuminates dark ground
It’s marked with a cross by the One who paid its cost
Now will you give your life to find the
greatest treasure of all time!

Worth It All

VERSE 1
One day a man found a treasure
Buried deep down below
Gold, silver, and diamonds
Riches beyond what he’d known
CHORUS
What would you give up?
What is it worth to you?
More valuable than anything
That you could ever own
It’s better than money!
It’s better than things!
The greatest treasure
Is the risen king
Jesus is worth it all!
VERSE 2
A rich man looking for jewels
Found a pearl of great worth
Sold all he had to discover
A joy never felt on the earth
BRIDGE
Jesus makes and Jesus saves
He’s the reason that we praise
We were worth his life to die
He’s worth all our sacrifice
Jesus is worth it all!

Build Upon the Rock
03:34
|
|||
|
VERSE 1
There once was a builder who was very wise
On a solid rock his new house did rise
But before too long when he looked up - Surprise!
A big storm was coming thundering down from the skies
VERSE 2
His neighbor next door built his house on the sand
He said “it doesn’t matter - as long as it’s land”
Whatever it’s cool - I don’t need no plan
Check it out Wise Guy - My house will be grand!
PRE-CHORUS 1
Then along came the storm
And it grew and it grew
The rain poured down
The wind blew and blew
Whoooooooo!
The thunder it rumbled and the lightning it flashed
One house stood firm but the other went … splaaaat!
CHORUS
His Word is the rock – it’s our firm foundation
Where we build to last – to the new creation
We build upon the rock - by reading His Word
To trust something else - is simply absurd
It’s in Christ Alone that we trust and obey
To build upon the rock we follow His way-ay!
Hey!
VERSE 3
This is a story about you, about me
And how we build our lives for eternity
Some people trust in friends or in fame
But all of that stuff is really quite lame
PRE-CHORUS 2
Cause when the storm comes
And it grows and it grows
Life will get tough
Down comes blow after blow
Whoooooooo!
If you’re not standing firm on Jesus the Rock
Your life will go splat! You’re in for a … shaaaaa-ock!
OUTRO
So get up and get movin’
Don’t get caught a-snoozin’ baby
(Build upon the rock! Build upon the rock)
The storms they are a comin’
When you see ‘em - best get runnin’
(Jesus is the rock! Jesus is the rock!)
When life makes you suffer
Jesus makes you tougher baby
(Build upon the rock! Jesus is the rock!)
The world it may be mockin’
But with Jesus we’ll be rockin’
(Jesus is the rock! He’s the solid rock!)
Build upon the Ro-o-o-ock!

Where You Belong
03:41
|
|||
|
VERSE 1
There was a shepherd in a field
Caring for his hundred little sheep with loving tenderness
One day a little one went astray
Into the mountains lost and all alone out in the wilderness
VERSE 2
That sheep was stranded and afraid
He had wandered far away from the One he belonged to
Missing the voice that guides the way
Wanting to hear his shepherd cry out… “I’m coming after you!” Whoa-oa!
CHORUS
For the one, He left behind the ninety-nine (the ninety-nine)
He left the rest for that little one to find
Your Shepherd loves and cares for you, little one (little one)
He would give his life to bring you home…
Where you belong
Where you belong
VERSE 3
Across rivers, hills, and plains
The Shepherd searches for his frightened lamb who had run away
The threat of wolves and heavy rains
Would not stop Him finding His little one who had gone astray
Hold on, little sheep, “I’m coming after you!”
BRIDGE
Jesus will save you
Trade his life to redeem you
All heaven rejoices
Forgiven to join Him…
Where you belong
CHORUS 2
He brings back the one to the ninety-nine, (the ninety-nine)
Heaven rejoices when He finds
Your Savior loves and cares for you, little one (little one)
Jesus gave His life to bring you home…
Where you belong
Where you belong

The Only Way
04:02
|
|||
|
VERSE 1
You say Jesus is your King
But you won’t give Him everything
You can’t live in between
You say sin is no big deal
But you still lie and cheat and steal
And lose sight of what is real
PRE-CHORUS
Destruction is what lies ahead
When you follow your heart instead
It’s a dead end! The danger just keeps growing!
CHORUS
STOP!
You have got to YIELD
Reveal the sin that was concealed
Submit yourself to Jesus Christ today
You’ve got to TURN AROUND
Turn from your sin - it drags you down
Follow Jesus, He’s the only way
To be saved
Don’t delay!
VERSE 2
The grace of God is truly free
But repentance is the key
To life eternally
Don’t be too proud to admit
We all have sinned - we must submit
Come on - confess it
God’s Word shows what’s true and right
Don’t wait too long - don’t try to fight
Turn around and give your life to Christ!

Jesus Is Greater
03:37
|
|||
|
VERSE 1
Your toys don’t love you back
Video games all fade to black
In sports someone’s gonna lose
The snacks you love just get consumed
The things of this world all meet dead ends
None of them compare to Him
CHORUS
Jesus is greater
Jesus is better
Than anyone anything anywhere ever
Jesus is greater
Jesus is better - yeah!
What you love the most is what you will seek
Where your treasure is there your heart will be
VERSE 2
The friends you make will come and go
Brains and brawn are just for show
Styles and fads - they fade away
The looks you have will turn to gray
The things of this world all meet dead ends
None of them compare to Him
