A WOMENS WORTH



You ask me what you’re worth –
I tell you -
“Look upon my hands.”
For scars that are there say more than words ever can.
You ask me what you’re worth –
I tell you –
“Look upon my head.”
For wounds that speak “I love you” is all that need be said.
You ask me what you’re worth –
I tell you –
“Look upon my side.”
For a sword was thrust, blood and water flowed so in me you could confide
You ask me what you’re worth –
I tell you –
“Look into my eyes.”
For all the love I feel for you I admit I can’t deny
You see- before the world was framed I knew you
I smiled when I looked upon your face
A beautiful little girl with eyes like mine, so full of love and grace
A smile that lit a dreary room – tears to reveal a tender heart
I knew I would pay any price so we would never be apart
I knew I could not live without you so I sought a way to you
And believe me daughter to win your heart there is nothing I did not do
Why do all this you ask me – why suffer so much pain?
Don’t you know you are worth more to me than any riches I attain?
You are of great value, for I created you and formed you with my hand
And then I placed in you a desire to know me and seek my wondrous plan
You have great worth my daughter, a high price was paid for you
For the enemy came looking and asked what I would do
How much would you pay?  What is she worth? The enemy at last did cry.
This is how much, how much she is worth-
I stretched out my arms and died. 

Jesus
