A Maior Riqueza

There are things that your money can't buy
Things that perish that time takes care of erasing
Imagine the things from heaven that only God has to give us
Not even with all the money in the world can one think of buying
Things that perish sometimes man can acquire
The whole world and calmly await the time to depart
But upon departing, it will be left for others to enjoy
Poor wretch, your soul will meet God

With money you can buy a bed but not sleep
You can buy medicine but not health
You can buy a house so rich and beautiful, a lovely mansion
But the dwelling in heaven with Jesus cannot be bought

A man without Christ has no hope and feels alone
Even with money, he lacks Jesus, the greatest wealth
With Jesus in life is better than one can imagine
For Jesus is everything and He could offer us all
Every saved believer seeks to gather treasure in heaven
The thief does not enter and neither will rust destroy it
We prefer Christ Jesus over the riches of this world
He will return, what good are treasures here
