The Pearl Lyrics

The righteous will shine like the sun

In their Father's kingdom, their race is run

Let the ones who hear, open their hearts

For the kingdom of heaven is where it starts

Like a treasure buried deep in the land

A man sells all with joy in his hand

A priceless pearl, a merchant's dream

The kingdom is more than what it seems

Oh, the net is cast, it gathers all

The good are kept, the wicked fall

At the end of the age, the truth will divide

In the blazing furnace, where none can hide

Oh, hear the call, let your soul get divine

In the Father's kingdom, the righteous shine

Have you understood? He asked the crowd

Yes, Lord, they answered, humble and bowed

Like a teacher with treasures, old and new

He brings wisdom clear, and faith renews

But back in his hometown, they could not believe

This is the carpenter's son, can he truly achieve

Offended they were, their hearts turned cold

A prophet without honor, as was foretold

Oh, the net is cast, it gathers all

The good are kept, the wicked fall

At the end of the age, the truth will divide

In the blazing furnace, where none can hide

Oh, hear the call, let your soul take flight

In the Father's kingdom, the righteous light

Where did He get this wisdom and might

Isn't He the carpenter's son in plain sight

A man from Nazareth, humble and small

Yet His words and wonders outshine them all

Oh, the net is cast, it gathers all

The good are kept, the wicked fall

At the end of the age, the truth will divide

In the blazing furnace, where none can hide

Oh, hear the call, let your soul get divine

In the Father's kingdom, the righteous shine

Shine, oh righteous, like the sun

In the Father's kingdom, the battle is won

Treasure found, the pearl divine

In His kingdom, forever shine
