funny that

After a morning of shopping in preparation for this afternoon's High Tea for 80 ladies I was feeling a bit flat. Turn on my iTunes and the first song "Hang On" the second, which I'm listening to now? "The Treasure of You". Just what I needed to hear...

Excuse me, I couldn't help but notice
That heartsick look in your eyes
You hide it very well, but I've got the same disguise
I know from all you see around you
You feel worth a very small price
So plain and ordinary, but there's a pearl inside

And if you look in the mirror in the light of the truth
You'll see there's really nothing you could say or do
To make you worth more to the One who made you

CHORUS
Your are a treasure
Worth more than anything under the sun or the moon
God's greatest treasure
Is the treasure of you

The rich man treasures gold and silver
The wise man, his knowledge of truth
Some will hold to memories and some will cling to youth
But the one who carved out the oceans
And painted the stars in the sky
You are His prized creation, the apple of His eye
There's no one else in the world who could take your place
Just the thought of you brings a smile to His face
God loves you with amazing grace

Last night at the pub someone correctly said my age of "late 20's" - no longer am I mid-20's, or even early 20's but late 20's, single, have spent way too much money lately and the house is a mess after hardly being at home in recent times (every night out for over a week)... and yet... God treasures little old single me. Funny that. But awfully nice.
