Will our lives be built with wood hay or straw?
At the end it will be made evident
If our life's work is burnt up
Burnt up
Doing only what is relevant
Enjoying our comforts
It'll be burnt up burnt up
Or will our lives be tried purified
Like gold refined
Fiery trials temptations
Hardships afflictions
Will our lives be purified?
Pure Gold pure gold
Must go through the fire
Pure Gold pure gold
Our lives must be radiant
Reflecting the Lord our Lord
These things the world holds dear
Must have no hold no hold
For we are given not a spirit of fear
But of love and power to be bold
Despite these fiery trials to come out Gold pure gold
Sanctified set apart — pure gold
Will we live by God's Spirit
Enduring the tests these trials
When He lives within us
His life will be abundant
Or will we do many things
Just to please ourselves n' others
Looking spiritual
But in the end we'll be shown
Our life's worth
Will our lives be burnt up?
Pure Gold can withstand the heat
Pure Gold
Pure Gold comes not from ourselves
Pure Gold
True Gold is only what will endure the fire and come out
pure gold
only that which originates in God,
is done in God’s power,
for God’s glory,
is eternal.
All the rest will perish,
being reduced to ashes
By fire at judgment seat of Christ
