Gold for Silver

I know deep down Silver don’t shine like gold I’ve done things To make my silver dull I know deep down There’s no way I could compare To the glitter that comes from gold Silver don’t shine like gold Was that really the worth of my soul? The life of the highest King, Just for mine? Silver for Gold, weigh the scales Nothing can compare Silver for Gold, on the scale- Doesn’t balance out, how can it? You gave Gold for silver, God you tip the scales God you’ve been so good to me Who am I that you would give life for me? Exchange another life for mine? Who am I to keep such a holy company? The holiest Spirit, living in me? Who am I that the highest King, Would even think about me? Silver don’t shine like gold He determined the worth of my soul The life of the highest King, Given just for me Silver for Gold, weigh the scales Nothing can compare Silver for Gold, on the scale- Doesn’t balance out, how can it? You gave Gold for silver God you tip the scales The most unfair trade in history The Son of God to pay a debt he didn’t owe So we will praise him for all eternity The Son of God, O Holy King Son of God O Holy King Son of God Highest King Son of God O Holy King Son of God Highest King I know silver don’t shine like Gold But he determined the worth of my soul The life of the highest King, Was given just for me Silver for Gold, weigh the scales Nothing can compare Silver for Gold, on the scale- Doesn’t balance out, how can it? You gave Gold for silver God you tip the scales
