A beautiful song about coming to the Savior with music by Kevin G. Pace and text by Kathryn W. Hales.

Text:
I went in the Gold Rush like many a man,
To search for some nuggets or a flash in the pan.
But few were the findings from a grand mother lode,
I went for the Gold Rush, but I didn’t find gold.

I found what was there, growing right from the ground,
The flora and fauna, with trees that abound.
I found the beauty of nature’s own place,
I found the beauty shown by God’s grace.

Like those in the Gold Rush, I’ve oft followed man,
To search for the shiny, a flash in the pan,
But the glamour soon ended when the glitzy wore thin,
I went for the sparkly but found grace for my sins.

The world cannot offer the true value of souls,
For they are more precious than nuggets of gold.
I found true wealth, not deep in a mine,
But in the pierced hands of a Savior divine.

I might lose my way, when guided by man,
So, look to the heavens and follow God’s plan.
The glitter of Fool’s Gold has many deceived__
A glimmer of hope, then deep tears of grief.

I’ll look for the riches only He can bestow,
I’ll avoid that ol’ Gold Rush but seek for true gold.
By seeking a life, eternal and pure,
Seeking for Jesus, who gives gold that endures.
