I've found some hidden treasures,
That come from deep within my heart;
I think I know who's put them there,
As full as lovely flowers in a flower cart.
The first I've found is a great love
for God and family;
Tucked away so gently
for all the world to see.
The second treasure that is there,
Is respect and loyalty;
For country and all those who gave their lives,
And stand guard for you and me.
Another treasure that I feel,
Is joy and happiness;
That comes when I say a special prayer,
For all those I wish God to bless.
And when I'm kind and say a word
of true encouragement;
To those who need to hear this,
From my humble heart are sent.
Search your heart and I'm sure you will find
that you have these treasures, too;
These gifts God's graciously put there
especially for you.
