More Than an Heirloom

Up in the attic

Down on my knees

Lifetimes of boxes

Timeless to me

 

Letters and photographs

Yellowed with years

Some bringing laughter

Some bringing tears

 

Time never changes

The memories, the faces of loved ones, who bring to me

All that I come from

And all that I live for

And all that I'm going to be...

 

My precious family

Is more than an heirloom to me.

 

Wisemen and shepherds

Down on their knees

 

Bringing their treasures

To lay at his feet

 

Who was this wonder baby yet king

Living and dying

He gave life to me

 

Time never changes

The memory, the moment His love first pierced through me

 

Telling all that I come from

And all that I live for

And all that I'm going to be~

My precious savior

Is more than an heirloom to me

 

 My precious Jesus is more than an heirloom to me.
