Dazzling Precious Treasure

Everytime I hear the song "Treasure" from Flyleaf it makes me think of how I feel towards my wife and boys and knowing that this is how my Lord feels towards me always seems to give me butterflies in my stomach.  To think that someone loves me to a greater depth than what I feel towards my closest loved ones or even what they can feel towards me.  He died for me... a person who screws up on a daily basis and who is not worthy for that privilege.  All I can do is ask for his forgiveness each morning and start anew knowing that he will always pardon all my sins and mess-ups!

Romans 5:8 - But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners. 

...
Refined I'll become the most dazzling precious treasure
I'll be treasured over all the earth

I am in awe and in shock
I’m in love and given away
I’m reserved with these words

Can I tell you a story
As we dance while the Son starts to bleed
Trees rejoice with the wind here
Hallelujah, Yeshua

Tonight I’ve become the most dazzling precious treasure
I am treasured over all the earth
Just look at what he’s done
How he’s laying down his life
Take this life
oh most dazzling precious treasure

Tonight I’ve become the most dazzling precious treasure
I am treasured over all the earth
