Excuse me I couldn't help but notice
That heartsick look in your eyes
You hide it very well but I’ve got the same disguise
I know from all you see around you
You feel worth a very small price
So plain and ordinary but there's a pearl inside
And if you'll look in the mirror in the light of the truth
You'll see there's really nothing you could say or do
To make you worth more to the One who made you

You are a treasure
Worth more than anything under the sun or the moon
God's greatest treasure
Is the treasure of you
The treasure of you
(And that's good news)

The rich man treasures gold and silver
The wise man his knowledge of truth
Some will hold to memories and some will cling to youth
But to the One who carved out the oceans
And painted the stars in the sky
You are His prized creation the apple of His eye
There's no one else in the world who could take your place
Just the thought of you brings a smile to His face
God loves you with amazing grace

You are a treasure
Worth more than anything under the sun or the moon
God's greatest treasure
Is the treasure of you
The treasure of you

So take a look in the mirror in the light of the truth
You'll see there's nothing more you could say or do

You are a treasure
Worth more than anything under the sun or the moon
God's greatest treasure
The treasure of you
You are a treasure
Worth more than anything under the sun or the moon
God's greatest treasure
The treasure of you
The treasure of you
Oh God's greatest treasure
The treasure of you

From the T to the R to the E to the A to the S to the U to the R to the E
God made everything and of everything He made
More than anything He treasures you and me
Check it in the mirror in the light of the truth
You'll see there's nothing you could say or do
To make God care anymore than He does for the treasure
God's treasure is you
