When trapped in the world
Feeling lost and adrift
It’s hard to consider
Existence a gift

Seems ‘twould be better
In heaven to dwell
A life of pure pleasure
Is easy to sell

Yet Christ came to show us
How little we know
For His greatest treasure
Was coming below

To take on our weakness
By giving His strength
And see how His love
Would go that great length

And this the gift
We’re privileged to share
By tracing His journey
We become His heir
